I have a red, white and blue scrappy latch- hooked rug I been working on over several years. I bought the plastic grid, I think at Joann's, and cut it to the size I wanted. Got the cheapest red and blue and white fabric I could find all of them prints (like football, noveltry prints, etc. and cut them into strips approximately 1/2 inches wide by 5 inches long and using the latch hook attached them to the grid just the way you would with yarn. Takes alot of strips but it's a great winter project.
