Rag Rug Handbag Tutorial

ragrugbag.jpg

I really like this Rag Rug Handbag tutorial over on Whip Up. I have two gorgeous rag rugs made from Indian silk saris that I bought a few years ago, and have been thinking that it was perhaps one too many. (For the floor, that is.) Maybe I'll turn one of them into a few handbags. Or, now that Heather Mann has me thinking of rag rugs as raw materials, maybe it could be a beanbag cover? Or some huge floor pillows? Or...? Any thoughts?

That bad is FAB! I have to make one for myself. My friends will be uber jealous and then I'll have to make them one too. LOL
