Intro to Rug Tufting

In this hands-on instructional class, participants will learn to use power tufting machines to create a rug or wall hanging. The 5-hour class will cover the basics of setting up a tufting frame with stretched primary cloth and threading and operating tufting machines.

You will finish and take home your piece in the same day.

Participants will work on projects of their own design on a frame that can accommodate pieces 24 x 24 inches.

Frame, cloth, and yarn are included in the cost of the workshop (participants will take their work and frames home following the class).

Space is limited to 20 participants!
