Description

The listing, Rag Rug making kit/ tool has ended.

here is a heritage craft that our great grandmothers used to do all the time. The tradition of taking 'rags' and creating beautiful rugs and placemats. The box contains the instructions and some sample patterns to follow along with the 'folding tool' to create the small plaits for braids.
After creating all the braids, you simply sew them together ... I've posted some samples of what you can achieve with just scraps of material.
The box is fairly light but odd sized. Shipping to the US will be about 8 to 12 dollars depending on location and type of postal requested.

Aww such a shame. I bought this years ago, and really have no idea where you might find them now. I wish I had more than one to put up here. Good luck with bidding and hope one way or another you find one! :)

Ohh yeay! I would trade you patterns for the instructions since I KNOW I have the little fold'em doohickies in my crafts storage but no patterns or instructions beyond online methods to do it.
So scan please and I'll grant my patterns back!

** here is an idea for you Denim Rose*
Check out the two other auctions I have on here... one is instructions I've put together and the other is a three book set of rug making patterns /ideas.

how much is shiopping to 52802, i did not see it was not free shipping

Problem is without taking it to the post office in packaged form to weigh I won't know exactly, but in my experience this would be a medium weight pkg and run about 8.50 CAD. That would be without tracking #'s. Could be the lighter weight cost of 5.85 but really wont know til I get it in there.
