Hi everyone! So remember the
rag rug tutorial I did a couple summers ago? I had such an amazing and overwhelming response to that project - I was really very humbled and honored. (People actually think I know what I'm doing!! Shhhh - don't tell anyone I'm just an excellent faker.) ;)
I had so many people send me the sweetest messages and stories about their rugs. Some people had never crocheted in their lives - but wanted to start with this project. How cool is that?! I mean - it is super easy and fun so I can understand why this is a great starter project - but again, I was so honored to be a part of that. :)
So today's post is dedicated to all those lovely crafty chicas who took the time to come by and ask a question...share a picture...start a dialogue on this project. I really appreciate YOU! And I'd like to share with all my bloggie friends some of the beautiful creations that were shared with me. Enjoy!

| This pretty "watermelony" rug says "Meemaw" in the middle - how cool ! |
 |
| A rectangle version! Neato! |
 |
| Such even, tight stitches. I bet this one turned out awesome! |
 |
| The soft neutrals and blues in this one give me a happy "beach house" vibe. |
 |
| Funkadelic!! This one is right up my alley. Love all the color! |
 |
| Haha! A gal after my own heart. I know how challenging crafting can be when you have such great "helpers" all the time! |
 |
| This chicky had some excellent reusing ideas to get this perfect color pallet for her living room. |
 |
| Loving this big fat stitches!! Ooooh the texture!!! |
 |
| This sweet little rug was made for a sweet little little. ;) So cute! |
It's hard to pick a favorite! Nor do I think I could. Or want to for that matter! They are all so different - with so many lovely textures and colors. Everyone did such an amazing job - a lot of them look better than my first run. No joke! Haha! Ahhh, my young grasshoppers. You have excelled beyond your teachings and are wiser than your teacher. Lol! <3 Thanks so much to everyone who contributed to this post. If you have a website or blog you'd like to link to - feel free to leave it in the comments - or contact me and I'll put it directly in this post with your rug. :) Have an awesome, crafty day everyone!!

I was looking for the tutorial but couldn't remember where I've seen it! awesome!! I already have the t-shirt yarn for my rug :)
Hi Ariane! I know - isn't that one great? I love what she did there too.
Hi Jarka! I keep wondering how those Tshirt rugs would feel underfoot - I bet they're super soft and scrumptious!
