@@lilgrump9730 look dude, I was just trying to give the girl a nice complement. I like her work, I think she did a great job, and she made an interesting video about it. Obviously things weren’t always mass produced. It’s just nice to see ppl take the time and effort to make something themselves instead of just purchasing it in a store. I didn’t know anything about tufting before watching her video and that’s all I was I saying. It doesn’t need to be some philosophical debate where you try to make yourself look like you’re smarter than everyone else by belittling ppl over a simple compliment meant for the artist...

Literally just found you and you’ve explained all of your tools so well! Went to your page and realized this is your first video and it was a week ago 😂😭! Cannot wait to see more content and learn so much from you 🥰😊

omg thank you! i have searched for more info in probably two years! - i have done hand tufting in two years and just purchased an tufting gun! so excited! thank you for all the advise :-D

I'm so happy I found this video! I've been looking for new skills to learn and the algorithm sent me your video lol I"m really excited to learn! Thanks for sharing!!!

Your voice is so comforting. I probably won’t make a rug but I did enjoy watching!! So cuuuutw

this is so great!!! making rugs sounds so interesting and this was very informative 🤍 also i love the ones you make they are beautiful

Girl this is amazing!! So so clear and helpful

Ordered mine today, thanks to you and Tim for the promo code, and information. I’m so excited!

Making rugs has been something I’ve wanted to do for years!

Idk why but i feel like this would be such a fun, cool hobby 🥺💗 i really want to learn & perhaps sell some in the future.

Oh this is the kinda content I'm here for!!! Can't wait to see more of your content, instant sub!

Looks great, I’d be really interested in seeing a video with all your rugs...maybe about how you come about designing them or ideas on what someone could make 😊

About 3 weeks ago I looked for videos on rug making and I couldn’t find a good one because I was literally envisioning a engaging and education video and I’m so glad this came up on my recommend. This was beautiful made and edited as well, well done. Can’t wait to see more videos from you girl xx

this is so informative thank you!! i just bought a punch needle and if i like it i’m going to save up for a tufting gun!! i’m 15 and i sell necklaces so i’m excited to put that money into this new hobby, thank you again!!

Thanks so much for the specific products you list!! I'm just getting started with punch needling patches and rugs, but didn't know where to turn for specific adhesives and backings. I'd love to hear your thoughts on acrylic VS wool yarn usage too! The most I've heard is a cost VS durability discussion (acrylic being cheaper and more accessible via craft stores and wool just lasting so much longer).

I can not wait to see your next few videos. I see a lot of videos about starting and working with the gun but I am having a hard time about finding out how to professionally finish a piece for use on the floor. Thank you for linking your adhesive and backing it helps a lot!

Wow here I was thinking this sort of stuff required Either some computerized industrial machinery, or painstakingly crocheting or something individual little pieces of yarn one by one. Who knew there was a power tool to do it makes sense lol I think I've seen some rugs like this with designs that looked very home made. Your rugs are so cute!

You got yourself a subscriber!

Thank you! Such an informative video. I was wondering, is it possible to tuft with “rag yarn”/ t-shirt “yarn”?

the stimmy check hit im finna make rugs thanks

thank you so much for all these helpful videos! did you need a plug adapter? I noticed the tuftinggun site mentions getting one.

Hi! I've been watching your videos for some time now and you have been so helpful in starting my tufting journey however, I was wondering if there was a spray or grease that you recommend using on our machine before we get started? Thank you!

SICK!

I only make punch needle rugs, but I wanna try this so bad omg!!

thank you!

I have a question! How do you get your checkerboard edges to be so sharp? They look great

Hi AJ, that's very interesting. Thank you for sharing. What kind of yarn do you use? Is it special yarn or it can be the ones for knitting? What about natural or bio fiber? Thks. HM

Do you put the rubber felt after you’re done punching the rug or do you glue it to the canvas and then sew over it ?

This really peaked my interest. I love all the fiber arts , didn't even know tufting was an option. What are the advantages/disadvantages of cut pile vs loop? Thanks 😊

@AJMAKES137

3 жыл бұрын

The biggest advantage with cut pile is that you don't need to use scissors. With a loop pile, you have to trim the yarn after each line you tuft

Hey, When your Done with the tufting How do you cut out the rugg? Do you have to do something with the edges or is it just Done after you cut it? :))

I love the fonts you use! What families are they?

Looking forward to your future tufting videos! Where is your large tufting frame from?

Hi! First, i love your rugs~ Really adorable! Second, I'm finishing my first full test rug and I have a super small hole. I tufted in another area and was hoping to be able to glue that to the finished project. Does that seem... doable/right? I don't plan on using the rug as a floor rug but I still want to keep it! Any suggestions? Thanks so much!

You could always hand-sew it in with carpet thread. Probably with a whip stitch

thank you for this video! did the rugs you made already come out that thick or did you have to adjust anything in the gun? also when you thread is it safe two put two strings of yarn or just one?

@AJMAKES137

3 жыл бұрын

I use the default height on my gun (haven't changed it yet because I'm happy with the height). I often use two threads of yarn when I'm filling in space. It creates more yarn density, quickly. Then I'll use one string for detail work.

I like your video :)

do you use any sort of shears to finish the rug? as well as a tool to trim out the front to make the design more clean looking on the front?

What font did you use on your thumbnail?♡

Can I use any kind of yarn for tufting or should I buy specific yarn? Im interested in tufting
