How to finish the back of a latch hook rug. I have a rectangular rug and a round one.
Putting binding on a latch hook rug isn't too difficult. After you have finished hooking the rug, trim the unused netting back so that you have a width of two squares of blank canvas at the edge of your finished work. Then, you will take binding tape and fold it over those edges up to the edge of your fabric, using a separate piece on all four sides. You will use a sturdy thread, such as what you would use to sew on a button, in a color which will blend in to sew the binding tape to the rug using a whip stitch.
to frame a latch hook rug you need to cut off the edges that do not have an outline of string and then you can either put it in a frame or just hang it up
One can purchase a latch hook rug kit at craft shops like Hobby Craft or Fun 2 Do. They can also be found in the haberdashery department of big stores like John Lewis, or online at Amazon.
You can repair your rug by using rug binding tape. First trim the frayed edges, then lay the binding tape out, binding the edge that is frayed. Lastly, use cross-stitches on the binding tape to help ensure it stays in place.
There is a program I use to create a latchhook pattern from any photo, picture, etc. The simpler the picture, the better rug it will create, alternativiely as you increase the size of the rug, the picture becomes more detailed. Are you looking for a completed rug, or a kit to do yourself?
12:47pm a fabric sealant, such as the product, with the generic name, I think, fray check: or a similar item from the hardware, craft or fabric shoppe ThankYou**!!
