Pearl Rug-maker. Price $1; for $1.10 in new subscriptions. Postage 6 cents.
A sort of sewing-machine attachment; not strictly that; for it is not attached; may be used with any machine, or without a machine, the sewing done by hand.
With it a woman of taste and aptness with colors can get out of her rag-bag beautiful rugs with almost no expense beyond sewing-cotton and dyes [see Diamond Dyes, page 23 of this list.]
The rug-maker is simply a nickeled steel-wire frame on which to wind cut rags or yarns preparatory to sewing them on a substantial foundation. Not hard to learn the use of. Not hard to use. A sort of homely art-work with waste materials, splendidly profitable.
The finished rug is a velvet, the pile of which is made by cutting the loops as they come from the rug-maker. The product of one day’s work may be as pretty and rich a rug as you would buy for several dollars. All depends on your taste, materials, colors, industry, patience. There is something of the constructive artist in every woman of taste.
