Rag Rug

I have been wanting to make a rag rug forever.  I have finally started working on it.  I have been working on it on and off for almost a week.  I am using old sheets that I had used in my old classroom as bulletin board backs.  It is yellow, blue, and plaid.  I have completed several yards so far.  I work on it while I am watching TV or like yesterday when DH was watching the race.  My two girls love to help me.  My oldest girl helps with sewing the strips together and with cutting the threads.  My youngest girl helps with cutting the threads.  They are enjoying helping.  I will post a picture when I finish.
