Have you ever wanted to design and create your own rug? The highly requested tufting workshop is finally here to fulfill that dream! I’m pleased to be able to offer this one on one guided workshop in which you design and execute a medium sized tufted rug.

Whether you have a vision for your perfect rug or you have interested in trying out tufting as a hobby, this workshop will walk you through the process. I will cover everything equipment and safety to techniques and supplies.

Important workshop information:

-Once booked you will receive an intake email to talk with me about designs and scheduling. I will provide a starting template to help in designing your rug and things to keep in mind while designing.

-Designs will need to be sent and approved ahead of time. I will need to make sure the design is achievable for the medium, size, and time we will be working with. If you have an idea you really want to make I will do my best to collaborate with you to make it possible within our constrictions.

-Currently I can only offer one working frame size of 30in x 30in. Rugs can be made smaller but not larger them the working area. Therefor maximum rug dimensions are roughly 28in x 28in

-In this workshop we will be using a tufting gun. You will be required to sign an activity consent form as this essentially a power tool. We will cover safety practices while tufting, but it’s important to understand theres a risk of injury if mishandling equipment.

-As a small independent artist running this workshop I can currently only afford to offer this workshop using acrylic yarn.

-Masks are highly recommended for this class. Tufting creates a lot of fiber dust and is not good to breathe in.
