In this hands-on instructional class, participants will learn to use power tufting machines to create a rug or wall hanging. The 6-hour class will cover the basics of setting up a tufting frame and backing cloth, threading and operating tufting machines, and how to cut, glue, and finish a tufted piece. Participants will work on projects of their own design on a frame that can accommodate pieces 22 x 22 inches.
Tuft the World will provide a frame, cloth, tufting machines and yarn for the workshop (participants will take home their tufted work following the class).
