Tufting Workshops

Rug Tufting

£120.00

Date:

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll be guided through the whole process - from getting comfortable with the tufting gun and transferring your design onto the cloth, to building up colour, shape and texture. You’ll work on your own piece and have plenty of freedom to experiment with your design as you go.

No previous tufting experience is needed. We’ll show you how to use the equipment safely and confidently, and help you throughout the session.

It’s a relaxed, creative workshop with a strong emphasis on making and experimenting, rather than getting everything perfectly “right”. By the end, you’ll have your own tufted piece to take home and a good understanding of the basic techniques involved.

PLEASE NOTE! You’ll need to send us your artwork 48 hours before the workshop starts.

All materials and equipment are provided.
