Yes.
I'm sorry I don't know how to do those type of rugs, I've also seen those type of rugs done with plastic bags.. Like the grocery store bags... They are pretty cool,colorful and easy to keep clean you just wipe it off..
Rip colorful pieces of material (or old cloths, if your into recycling) in to even strips. Say about an inch wide and as long as you can get them.
Now comes a decision. You can braid the strips together and then either sew them together into an oval a circle or whatever or you can do it real easy way and just bunch the strips together and sew across them.
I don't know if that's very clear. Your best bet may be the web sites suggested by another answerer.
They make a book that shows an easy way to make rag rugs... check your local book stores if they don't have it they can usually get you a title and order it for you.
