Tufting is done from the back side of the fabric, meaning you’ll be tufting a mirror image of your design
New to designing? No stress—Design Assistance is available as an add-on if you’d like your design pre-sketched before tufting
📐 Size & Design Options
Each participant has up to 24” x 24” of total tufting space
Choose one larger piece or multiple smaller pieces within that space
Backing & Finishing Your Artwork (Please Read ✨)
Participants must provide their own backing material.
Yarn Rambo recommends:
Wood panel canvases or traditional stretched canvases for those who plan to mount their piece on the wall
Canvas backing with edge wrapping is the best option if you’d like to leave the workshop with a completed, ready-to-hang piece
For attendees who want to use their piece as a rug (or want a polished, professional finish):
Professional rug binding is strongly recommended
Rug binding is also a great option for wall-mounted pieces that need extra durability
For a small additional fee, Yarn Rambo can transport your completed artwork to E&T Rugs in Liberty, MO to be professionally bound.
Artwork is typically returned in 4–6 weeks
This service saves you time, logistics, and guesswork
