Penny Rug Appliqué

Folk lore attributes “penny rugs” to table rugs created with woolen fabrics using coins or pennies as the pattern template often seen on vintage pieces dating from the Civil War era. As with other folk art, everyday life design motifs are popular on original rugs. Designs were stitched with simple buttonhole and other embroidery stitches and finished with a tongue shaped border. Bird Brain Designs’ penny rug projects are created with a whimsical approach to this traditional folk art craft using wool!  Designs include everyday plus Christmas, Easter and Halloween pillows, wall hangings, ornaments, pin cushions and other needlework necessities.
