Scandinavian Rag Rug Workshop
October 2023
A fun and creative evening learning how to making Scandinavian Rag Rugs.
In collaboration Crich Crafters and Art Share Crich hosted a sustainable materials workshop.
A big thank you to Sophie James who shared her skills with the group and demonstrated the art of making a Scandinavian rag rug using old materials, i.e. old duvet covers or curtain fabric so that we could breathe new life into them.
Getting started was a bit tricky, but with Sophie's patience and guidance we all got going and found it to be a very relaxing and satisfying skill to learn.
Some of the items made have been submitted for display at the Autumn Art Share which is running alongside our October Share & Repair event.
Sophie runs a small business, James and Co. She started crocheting to support her mental health and has since expanded her passion into an artisan craft business.
