These are the fabrics to be made into table runners, or narrow kitchen sink rugs. It is leftover warp from the place mats.
Cutting the fabric into 1 " strips with a rotary cutter. Next time they will be cut wider, am used to using denim and sweatshirt materials and the runners turned out thin.
Here they are ready to sew together into long strips.
These measure 13" x 36" and 13" x 41" and were finished Oct. 27th for the craft show on Nov. 15. One of them was supposed to be a gift for a co-worker, but there is so much pink in them, she probably won't like it. So will blend the leftover fabric with some darker, more traditional colors and start over with a multi colored warp. But all in all, I am happy with the way they turned out.

Thanks.

I love rag rugs, yours look great. I've been cutting strips for a while now as I intend on crocheting one together, I would weave it but my poor RH can't handle that.
Thank you, hope you post pictures when your crocheted one is done!
Beautiful!
Lovely eye for color - those rugs turned out beautifully!
