Tufting London
11m · PublishedBex explores the art of tufting, a rug-making technique, at Tufting London.
Melissa explains that tufting is similar to punch needling but faster, allowing you to create a rug quickly! The process involves sending in a design, choosing yarn colours, tufting, applying glue to the rug's back, drying, attaching a non-slip backing, and shaving the rug for a smooth finish.
Plus, we guide you on creating a mini weaving loom at home using cardboard, yarn, and basic tools.
