DIY - Zebra rug!

Oh my....a bright no-sew zebra rug! Such a simple inexpensive idea for a kids room - this rug was made for a dorm room!

Instructions and images from here.
Cut-It-Out Felt Rug
Non-fraying felt makes this project a cinch, and the zebra motif will have your hallmates demanding where you found it. It's so simple you can adjust the technique to make a rug in just about any size or style, including a welcome mat.
