Little rug

Just a little something - Grandma's rug, crocheted from old skirts cut into strips. Name of the game was to find colors matching the walls' colors - they are custom painted with folk motifs in yellow/green/lilac/purple.

Two skirts and one dress, cut into strips 1.5 inch wide. Here is how you connect two strips changing colors  without knots.
