There are 2 different kinds of floor quilts in the sites you have listed. The first one is about making a quilt and just using it on the floor. The second site is a book about making floor quilts that using fabric on some kind of canvas material and then using decoupage to seal the fabrics and use on the floor. We have a quilt shop owner that does classes on the decoupage rugs. I personally like the idea of making a quilt to use as a rug.....maybe....
