| Woman of the 1800's collected scraps of old clothing or hats to create these rugs. They are called penny rugs because they would use coins as templates for the designs. Sometimes pennies where sewn into the designs to help the rugs lie flat. The penny rugs of today feature similar creative designs and techniques. These rugs feature sleeves on the back so they can also be used as wall hangings. |
