I love making rugs and wall rugs are my favorite. Here are three of my favorite ways to finish a wall rug - soft-backed, hard-backed and framed!
Soft-backed wall rugs are probably the first way most people learn to finish a rug. This technique simply uses a felt or fabric backing to cover the back of the rug with a d-ring or loop to hang it from. Because this is soft and can lay flat it can also double as a cute table mat!
Hard-backing is my personal favorite way to finish a wall rug. A slightly more advanced version of a softbacking this involves wrapping a piece of hardboard with felt and then stapling your finished peice to it. A sawtooth hanger is nailed into the back for hanging. This technique is great for keeping your tufting piece from sagging or folding against the wall.
Frame finishing is an option if you run out of glue! For smaller wall rugs you can display them in a picture frame. The trick is to get a frame with a matteboard and use this as the template for your wall rug. After tufting you can use a piece of double sided tape to help hold it in place in the frame and voila!
