Rag Rug Roundup

SHIFT · 252 Haverford Avenue · Narberth PA 19072
Rag rugs are fun to make, easy to clean, and can bring joy and warmth to any space.
Community member Christine Bonney Goon will demonstrate how to prepare upcycled fabric for this easy, no-sew method of rug making. Bundles of prepared strips of fabric will allow students to start their own rugs during the class, giving confidence to anyone who wants to continue a larger project at home.
Students may also bring fabric scissors and t-shirt like fabric (clothes, sheets, etc. that would otherwise be ready to recycle) if specific colors or fabrics are preferred.
Ticket price includes:
- Prepared strips of fabric
- Instructional and practice time
- 5% off refills the night of the event
