NEW at Rustic Rag Rugs!
Already have a pile of old sheets or fabric waiting for a new life? Maybe you’ve taken one of my rug-making classes and already know the technique? Or perhaps you just want to give Toothbrush Knot Rug making a try without purchasing a full kit.
Now you can! - You can now purchase the Toothbrush Knot Rug Needle + Instructions on their own.
-One needle — ready to start creating
Instructions included — so you can get right to it
Use your own fabric — old sheets, fabric scraps, thrifted finds… whatever you have tucked away! ♻️
I love the idea of taking something that might otherwise be forgotten and turning it into something useful, beautiful and handmade. ❤️
So if you’ve already got the fabric, all you need is the needle and a little inspiration!
✨ Make it from what you have. Make it your own. ✨
Available now from Rustic Rag Rugs. - Needle + Instructions!
$12 Each

🌸 Hello everyone! 🌸
I hope everyone had an amazing summer! ☀️
I was away on our pleasure boat for 5 weeks, and I’m only now getting back to real life on land! 😂⛵️
But I’m back, and I have some exciting news to share! 🎉
I have upgraded the toothbrush needles I use for making my Amish Toothbrush Knot Rag Rugs, and I am absolutely loving these new beautiful, colourful needles! 🌈
Even better, they are 3D printed right here by someone I had the pleasure of meeting! ❤️ I’m so excited to be able to offer these fun, colourful needles to all of you!
🧶 The needles are available for $12.00 each and can be purchased separately if you already have a rug kit and would like to upgrade your needle.
And don’t forget — a needle is included with every Amish Toothbrush Knot Rag Rug Kit! 🥰
I can’t wait to see all the beautiful rugs you create with them! 💕🧶

24 more kits done and ready to go! 🎉
At this rate, I may have to start hiring help to assemble all these DIY toothbrush knot rug kits! 😆
I've tried recruiting the dogs, but unfortunately their work ethic leaves a lot to be desired. They mostly supervise from a distance, take naps, and occasionally inspect the supplies. 🐶🐶
It's a lot of work putting these together, but I love knowing they're headed out for others to enjoy. Thank you to everyone who has supported my small business—it truly means so much. ❤️

Hey everyone! Just letting you know to those who been buying my kits that I started a question and answer to this page. I pinned it to top so you can find it easily. I do post questions and answers as they come along and some I added that I think may get asked. This one came in today but you can find more in the post:
-
Q: The runner in the kits is made from white sheets—does it have to be white?
A: Some of you may notice that I use white sheets rolled into a ball for the runner (also known as the spine of the rug). No, it definitely doesn’t have to be white! I use white simply because a friend generously donated sheets from her B&B. Since the runner isn’t visible in the finished rug, you can use any color you like.

You can now buy these lovely kits at Station Diner Ice Cream Parlour and Bakery or Some Good Market.
-
You can buy directly from me if you require it to be shipped!
Happy rugging—have fun creating!
