One of our teachers created an interesting rug by taking carpet squares, taping them together on the bottom, and then laying them on some sort of backing, to which she GLUED the carpet pieces. She then had to put rubber strips on the carpet so that it would pass the "non slip" rulings for school safety.

It all depends on what the backing and edges are like.

If it's bound in fabric, a big hand needle and "carpet thread" in a basting or X stitch will work.
