Tufting Class: Beginner Tufting

You’ve heard about tufting already, but have you tried it? Come on over and join us to learn all the basics of tufting! In this tufting class in Seattle you can learn to create a custom tufted wall hanging. We’ll have frames, fabric, yarn and tufting guns for you – all you need to bring is the willingness to learn and have fun and maybe an idea for the design you'd like to tuft.In this class, you will focus on getting comfortable with a tufting gun and the movement. We will use acrylic yarn so the piece you make will be best hung on a wall. If you’d like to use it in low traffic area as a rug that is possible as well. You will be using a frame that is approximately 30x30 inches. We will have yarn available for you - but if you would like to use something specific, you are welcome to bring size four acrylic yarn. Instructions on how to finish the back of your piece will be provided at the end of the class and you can finish it on your own time.Depending on the size of the piece you create, you may or may not complete your rug during this class. All class attendees also receive a coupon for 100% off a ticket to our monthly open tufting studio session. That's three additional hours of tufting that you can use to either finish your project from class - or start something new. We're concerned about your little hands and how they'll react to you gripping a power tool for multiple hours in a row. It's best to split up large projects to prevent injuries. If you're looking for unique experience gift ideas, a chance to craft your own tufted rug will make for an unforgettable creative day. This craft workshop also makes for fun date ideas, birthday parties, and more! A day spent crafting is a day well spent!
