About this Event

Learn to use a tufting gun to punch yarn into a stretched backing and turn a flat sketch into a soft, textured rug. We'll cover frame setup, gun handling, color planning, and finishing: trimming, gluing, and backing. All materials, tools, and safety gear provided. Come with a simple design idea or use one of ours. Wear closed-toe shoes and clothes you don't mind getting fuzzy.
