How to Make a Shag Rug Out of Old T-Shirts

There are a lot of upcycled t-shirt crafts out there, but this one is a great take on rugs made out of old t-shirts. By using an old hand towel, Jackie at the Happy Housewife found a quicker way to achieve these results:

For this project, you need:

  • T-shirts
  • Hand towel
  • Ruler
  • Tailor’s chalk or water soluble marker
  • Rotary cutter
  • Cutting mat
  • Sewing machine
  • Thread
  • Scissors
