thanks so much better than my method where I have too many ends love the one strip and also how to deal with those pesky fitted sheets too..now for scissors I give mine new life by keeping a few good size squares of fine/med fine grit sandpaper and cutting the sandpaper with my scissors a good 5-8 times maybe it's my imagination lol but they seem good to go after I cut the sandpaper as if sharpened..

Thank you so much! I just saw an article in the latest issue of "Jeanne d'Arc Living" magazine (out of Denmark) about rag rugs and am SO eager to make them now... especially using bedsheets that belonged to my beloved mother. You have made it look easier than I imagined. Many thanks for posting this... God bless.
