I made a set of coil fabric covered coasters yesterday and there is no reason the clothesline I used for the coil wouldn't make a great rug. I cut strips of 2" wide fabric, and sew the line in it like piping using a zipper foot. I trim the edge to 1/8" from the stitching line and then sew the strips together keeping the seam line on the inside of the shape. No raw edges show. So much easier and faster then wrapping fabric around the line.

Making a matching bowl with the leftover line today. Oh 56" of line makes a perfect size coaster.
