Welcome to the 19th century technique called 'Penny Rugs'. During the Civil War era pennies were much larger - almost an inch in size. Women who 'mended and made do' used up their smallest scraps of fabric by making these charming 'rugs' comprised of a series of graduated sewn circle 'pennies'.

This class comes with a 6oz. bag of pennies (about 100 pennies) in a mix of sizes and colors, as well as yarn, needles, snippers, and everything you need to get pennying!
