Penny rugs were originally made in the 1800's. Victorian women gathered scraps of wool or wool felt from old clothes or hats and used coins as templates to create designs for mats and rugs. Each decorative wool "penny" was appliquéd in a blanket-stitch fashion to a wool background. Sometimes the pieces were backed with burlap bags or feed sacks and a penny was stitched under one of the circles to weigh it down and make it lie flat. Early penny rugs were often used as decorative coverings for beds, tables, and mantles. After extensive research, Homespice Décor has adapted this beautiful technique to create lovely handmade rugs and wall hangings.
