Binding

Carpet binding

Turn any carpet remnant into a finished rug. We sew a fabric binding over the cut edge so it lies flat, looks clean and won’t fray. Use our stock carpet or bring your own.

A clean, durable edge

Binding is the most popular way to finish a rug. A strip of fabric tape is folded over the raw edge and stitched through, giving a neat border that protects the carpet for years.

Bring us a remnant, a room’s worth of leftover carpet, or pick from the carpet in our shop. We cut it to the size you need and bind it in the color you choose.

Where bound rugs work well

  • Area rugs sized exactly to the room
  • Hallway and stair runners
  • Entry and mud-room mats that catch dirt before it reaches your floors
  • Protecting wood floors under furniture
