Great idea and they can also be dyed to go with any project.

Can't wait to try this, although I hope I can cut the strips better than when I tried making yarn from bed sheets! However, I am not really sure that this would make an absorbent bath rug. I've used old t-shirts before for rags/baby wipes and they are absolutely NOT absorbent.

This is great! I want to make a rug for my kitchen. I wish that they would have given a gauge just for a guide.

Blessings, Ann T.

That's very clever! I like the bathmat idea. You could even make a nice contrasting border if you had some t-shirts of different colors, though I imagine they would need to be very close in fabric weight for it to work properly.
