@@Madtwig Oh thank you! I will admit I definitely enjoy the crafting part way more than the filming/editing part, but I try to push through and picture the completed video as part of the process. It can take time getting used to- I use capcut, it's free and fairly easy to use, if that helps you! Good luck!
@@rosiebear3101 Probably combined about 3 total I'd say with a tufting machine for the tufting part. The entire process (not the glue drying), is about 6 hours, but that's not including getting yarn colors from multiple stores.
That is such a great tutorial! Thank you!! And btw your soothing voice and little chuckles were a great bonus. I just subscribed and hope you will make a bunch more videos!
what's your trick when trimming the edges between the colors? it seems like mine, some get cut and some just lay down. last piece doesn't look TERRIBLE as a practice piece, but i would feel weird selling it. may try scissors but i'm scared to ruin my next piece lol.
I like to leave a bit of space between the colors! Maybe about 1/5th of an inch. That way they are easier to separate on the other side of your work when you are trimming. I think I talk about it in my Maple video, (edit: its at 10:09 in that video) that tutorial is much longer because I go pretty in depth with some tufting tips lol. Maybe it can help you!
@thetuftedbuffalo literally was googling today looking for samples and I figured u made this yourself and seems pretty smarts just need a small space on the corner of the cloth. I'll definitely be doing this, what did u clip them with?
whoa I always assume these type of projects were done by hand by pushing the needle through individually😂 that's why I never tried because I have carpal tunnel and arthritis
They can be but it would take a long time! It's called punch needling, its the same concept but this handheld machine does it much faster (and cuts the other end to make it a "cut-pile" instead of a "loop-pile) :-)
You can, depending on your model. The one I use can be adjusted to lengthen or shorten it by about half an inch. There are other higher powered machines that allow for a high pile.
I usually get all my supplies from tuft the world. They sometimes have sales like 15% or 20% off and I usually stock up then. So far it seems to be the best deal and I'm familiar with the quality. I know you can get some off of Amazon too but I don't know where it's coming from. Micahels has some available from a different brand called easy tuft, and sometimes they have great coupons. Not sure of the quality.
