Creative Looms
manufactures the highest quality and most versatile line of handwoven rag
rugs on the market. Our qualities range from the traditional American Charm
which is a flatwoven reversible rag rug in colors to coordinate with your
client's fabrics to the shaggy Hobohemia which is made of cut pieces of
rag material such as clothing and blankets that give a rustic yet whimsical
look to any room. Quiltweave which won the Roscoe Award in 1982 gives a
new dimension to the traditional rag rug by added thickly quilted pieces
to the face of the rug which gives more of a sculptural effect to the setting.
All of our rag rug qualities are made of recycled materials and can be
customized in any color or combination of colors to suit your needs.
Cleaning is very simple with this group of rag rugs as you can use any
vacuum for the flatweaves and low pile qualities and a vacuum without a
beater bar or set on a hard surface setting for those qualities that have
a higher pile. they can be spot cleaned using a mild detergent and water
and can be dry cleaned by a commercial carpet cleaner experienced in cleaning
rugs.

use.
