I literally have enough old tee shirts to fill several boxes and they are not being worn they are being saved because no one can bear to throw them out. I am definitely going to have to view one of the tutorials the learn how to transform these unused shirts into basically a lot of free yarn.

For years I have been saving all our old T-shirts in the hopes that I would be able to turn them into the perfect project and this may just be IT! I just love the soft feel of old T-shirt fabric and now that I have cut many of them into strips for this rug I can not wait to finish it so that I can indulge on the feeling of it on my feet, lol!

This is a genius upcycling idea! I bet you could pick up a bunch of colorful t-shirts at a thrift store to make this fun rug.

Love this one! I tried making a braided t-shirt rug which was sewn together but it became very hard to work with on the sewing machine. This one I can definitely handle.
