Not at all! This workshop is designed for complete beginners. Our expert instructors will teach you everything from threading the yarn and safely handling the electric tufting gun to the techniques required for clean lines and consistent density.
-
The tufting process itself is intensive and fun, typically lasting 2.5 to 3 hours. We recommend setting aside a full afternoon or evening to allow for design time, tufting, and a short break.
-
The rug is ready to take home immediately after your session.
-
The workshop offers two frame sizes: a standard approximately 18-inch frame included with the class, and a larger approximately 25-inch frame available as an optional upgrade for an additional $15 if you prefer a bigger rug size.
-
Yes, you can choose almost any design! However, simple designs work best for beginners. We strongly recommend avoiding overly intricate details, thin lines, or small lettering, as these are much harder to execute with the tufting gun. You will be asked to submit your design prior to the workshop for review to ensure it is tufting-friendly.
-
Safety is our top priority. We provide thorough instruction on safely operating and handling the electric tufting gun. All participants are closely supervised by our staff throughout the session to ensure a fun and secure environment.
