Here's my latest commissioned rug, the family home with the Blue Ridge Mountains as a backdrop. I hooked it with T-shirt strips, so it will be super tough and durable, also machine washable!
Blue Ridge Mountain Home, 31"x17." Designed and hooked with T-shirt strips by Judy Taylor
I have been having so much fun experimenting with T-shirt strips lately, I thought I'd make that a theme in this month's web specials. Lots of kits, patterns, and linen for 20% off for the month of January. And of course, my book T-shirt Treasures is always 20% off!
There's just so much we can do with T-shirts. They come in every color, hue, shade, and texture in the rainbow and beyond, so you never have to dye colors. It's the most inexpensive option for rug hooking on a budget. And a great choice for people who are sensitive to wool. Not only are T-shirt rugs machine washable, but wool moths don't want anything to do with them!
Here's wishing you a healthy, happy, rug-filled year!

All the way back in August of 2017 I found your website and blog on rug repair. It too me a while to come up with the best solution for my particular problem. I finally got the job done and wanted to send photos of my progress but couldn’t figure out how to do that.
I am very happy with the end result and would still like to share. What is the best way for me to do that.
