Rectangle & Square Rug Booklet also includes Aunt Philly's Toothbrush Needle (see additional picture)

"The 'Toothbrush Rug' is made from torn strips of fabric and a modified toothbrush. These rugs are quick to make and require no sewing and have a fast tearing technique which shows you how to tear all your fabric in just minutes. All projects are machine washable, dryable and last for years!

Making rugs is fast, easy and fun. I can make a rug in a day (8 hrs). They work up fast because there isn't any sewing and we can tear all of our strips of fabric in a couple of minutes. One basic stitch allows the rug to be made quickly and with ease. Many rugs that are hand made are hard on your hands. Our rug making method is relaxing. The stitch we use is similar to a blanket or button-hole stitch."
