Tufting - Make a 50cm x 50cm Rug! 2 Part Workshop
Advertisement
Join Gemma for an introduction to using a cut-pile electric tufting gun to create a rug over a 2 part workshop (cost is for both parts)
PLEASE READ OVER THE FOLLOWING WHICH SHOULD COVER ANY Q’S YOU HAVE BEFORE SIGNING UP…
Please book your chosen date for session 1 on the calendar below, Gemma will then host a couple of proper taught sessions for part 2, for this workshop they will be Sat 8th Nov 10.30-12pm and Tue 11th Nov 1-2.30pm or 6.30-8pm. If you can’t make these then you can pop in when Gemma is teaching another workshop, which is around 8 times a week, you would therefore get some help from her but you would be sent an easy to follow video with the steps so you can work independently - there are just 3 stages and they are very easy. Please note you could easily finish a friends off too if they are unable to attend session 2
Session 2 dates/times will be discussed and confirmed during your part 1 so bring your diary ;-)
You will need to come with a rug design idea, it is important to note that tufting is easiest when done standing up and requires holding the 1kg tufting gun for long periods - so it is a great workout craft but might not be comfortable for all.
Upon booking you will receive a detailed email with a lots of links to inspirational rug designs and lots of top tips, you can send us your idea in advance if you want to check its suitability.
At the studio we have a choice of over 50 colours of yarn which can be selected on the day.
Session 1 - will be a busy 3-3.5hrs, you need to complete your full rug and then apply latex at the back of your rug which will then be left to dry for at least 12 hours.
Session 2 - will be a relaxed 90mins, during this session you will be shaving your design, cutting it from the frame and applying a felt backing so it s ready to use!
