Hello fellow Leah I’m glad we share the same thoughts :)

Was a bit confused about why KZread recommended me a video on how to punch needle a rug, but now I understand that KZread knows me better than I know myself. That looks awesome and I suddenly feel that I really need to try to make a rug...

I have a habit of picking up a million different forms of crafting. I love it but I’m always wanting to try new things which means I need the supplies for these new things... once I go to get the supplies I get ideas for multiple different projects I want to do with this new skill I’m trying.. so, after spending a decent amount of money on supplies I’ll make a bunch of stuff and then lose interest. Now I have a bunch of supplies I’m determined to use at some point. 😓😅

It's wayyy to cool to put it on the ground, I would hang it on the wall it's a masterpiece

thank you man, I couldn't understand this part xD

With almost 2,000 comments, someone else may have already mentioned this tip to speed up the printing process. In Illustrator, set your Artboard to slightly larger than your image. The default is paper size, but you can make it any size you want. Make sure your whole image fits on the artboard. When you print, there will be a section on the screen called Options. In that section, click on the Scaling drop down menu, then choose Tile Full Pages. Illustrator will automatically break your image to print on multiple pages, and it will show you a preview of how many pages it will take. Hope this helped!

Here’s another way too: if you have a large TV and a laptop with Screen Mirroring abilities, pull up the image on your laptop, screen mirror it to your TV, and then place your frame against your TV. That way, it’ll be easier to trace your image if you don’t have a projector!

Thank you for showing how you finish the rug, and instead of covering up the mistakes with the magic of editing, you use them as a teaching tool to show how to fix those mistakes!

What a great tutorial! I appreciate that you took the time to explain how you used illustrator, I feel like a lot of people would have just skipped that part.

Because learning how to do is one thing, and learning how to teach is another. Also, the result is beautiful.

because of my anxiety there are periods of time when i can't listen to music or watch anything because the sound is too overstimulating, and your channel is genuinely a blessing 😭💕

This was such a detailed tutorial on how to punch needle from the very start to the end. It was cool see how you pull different elements from things that inspire you to make one really cool cohesive piece of art. I've never seen some do such a large punch needling piece! When I learned how to do it years ago everyone I knew used very fine needles. A lot of people would use literal syringes with a hole made in the side of the point. You end up needing much thinner yarn, and I don't know if you *need* to use tightly woven fabric for it, but at the time most people would look for the most tightly woven fabric they could find. It was often similar fabric to a linen tea towel. I think it was partly because people would embroider designs on the edges of kitchen towel and such, but also because it was *supposed to* hold your yarn better. Kinda makes sense if you're putting it through the wash I guess. You can get very nice fine detail that way, but dear lorrrd, that combination of things made learning how to do it quite frustrating. I'm really excited to try punch needle embroidery again with the tips you mentioned about what type of fabric works well. When I initially saw the thickness of the needle I was like "😲 how tf is that going to stay in the fabric", but it makes so much sense how you explained it. Many thanks! I really appreciate the video.

Tell me why this is everything I needed in my life! You are a gem

You NEED to host workshops, you explain the process better than any art and design teacher I've ever had

Thank you for talking about the awkward art middle stage because it's one of the things that sends people running away from art - also using sneakers to choose color palettes is a tactic that I'm definitely going to use, too!

Love your whole vibe. Love how passionate you are about your art. Its true when they say purchases of art are mostly about the artist. New fan. Have you ever tried printing out large pieces using the automatic tiling feature? It automatically places every bit of the art onto seperate pages for you to the exsct size you specify. And old time billboard painters used to "pounce" their designs onto the large surface by tracing each color shape by making pin holes in the paper pattern and bouncing a bag of graphite powder over the holes thereby transferring the pattern without having to cut it out and keep the relationships intact. Perhaps you already knew these techniques, but just in case you experiment and find it saves you some time to make even more! I learned a lot about Illustrator from you and how to use a punch needle. I never could figure how its stitches stayed in!

I know you have almost 2000 comments, and I hope you see mine! Thank you! I have been doing punchneedle for years and years, but not for making rugs. I do pictures with embroidery floss. Punching is so stress-relieving! I have been wanting to do rugs, and of course the place to learn anything is KZread. I’ve watched quite a few videos about rug making. They’re all good and helpful, and in most they’re using a tufting gun. I guess I could do that, but I’m so used to the steady, relaxing handwork of punching that I’d miss it. Then your video shows up on my feed, and I’m so glad I decided to watch it. You gave me a thorough class, from the frame to the binding. I was worrying about using latex or other goo on the back. The back is as pretty as the front, and I was wondering if it needed to be used on a loops type rug. Now I know! I wouldn’t be making rugs for high traffic areas, anyway. I learned so much! Thank you for taking the time to give such a good demo. I’m ready to try it!

One of the best punch tutorial video i've seen so far on all the platforms. Thank youuu!

I’ve been seeing this rugs around for a hot second now and I always wanted to know how to make one!!! I’m also an artist and the texture these rugs give off give me so much inspiration!
