Rag rugs

You likely saw them at your chapan’s house (your great grandparents house)…rag rugs! Rag rugs were one way that our great grandmothers showed the value of thrift and re-use of old items. Strips of fabric from old clothes or sheets find new life as rugs! In this class we will practice this skill by making coiled rag rugs. Start saving those old t-shirts and sheets!

This is a 3 hour class that starts at 6pm MST.

There are no refunds on online classes, however, a recording will be available for you to watch afterwards.

Taanishi! Dishinikawshon Natalie Pepin. I am a Metis woman in the Tawatinaw Valley in Alberta, Canada. I support indigenous people who are reclaiming their indigenous roots to connect with their culture through learning the traditional skills, arts, stories and teachings of our ancestors. I support indigenous people, who are severed from their traditions by legacy and trauma of colonization, who are discovering that their culture is beautiful. I teach indigenous arts workshops such as beading, moccasin making and brain tanning as a means of reconciliation and reconnection.
