Hi everyone,
i have seen my grandmother make rugs with a punch type thing, she thread the wood through it and just punched through hessian bagging it amde a running stitch. when she finished she would turn the rug over and trim the wool into pile.
i would love to find out what the tool was because if was so easy i made 2 floor rugs when i was 12 and now she is gone and no one in my family is creative so they don't remember what this tool was. i know it was not latch hooking or fabric strip hooking.
if you can help i would appreciate it.
i am from australia so if you would like any information about our crafts just send an email and i will see what i can find out.
thanks
