You would like to start tufting but don't know how, where to start and how it works?
In our Beginners Tufting Workshops Jenni teaches you everything about the tufting process in one day.
After our Workshop you can work independently and know all the basic information to tuft your dreams.
What we do in the course:
- You will learn about the structure of a tufted carpet.
- You will learn how to stretch the tufting frame correctly.
- You will make your first tufting attempts and get to know the different tufting machines.
- You will learn all the tips and tricks from Jenni.
- and of course you tufted your first own rug!
- Finally I show you how to finish everything at the back and how to glue the carpet.
The rug will then dry over night and you can pick it up at Dynamo during opening hours and finish it there or at home with the help of our Youtube Tutorial.
The maximum size of the rug you will tuft is 70x50cm. However, you are completely free in the shape and design. We work with 100% New Zealand carpet wool and recycled cotton yarn.
To transfer your design on to your Tuftingcloth you can draw it freehand on to paper on the day and then transfer or, if you have something more complicated you can bring your design in the final size of 50 x 70 max. Please make sure you do not overstep that size.
Time:
9:00 - 17:00
