Your backing is the best I've seen so far without actually binding the edge. Thanks for the tips.

@chiaraeagle622 3 года назад

Thanks so much for your videos! You started your channel just as I discovered rug tufting, so you've been a happy companion for me as I've been trying to learn more and see if this is something I wanted to get into. Well, I bought my tufting gun today and I'm beyond excited!

@SamSam-esqe 3 года назад

I’ve used the bond adhesive, Pros: dries mostly clear, is strong af, mostly flexible, almost no smell Cons: when trying to fold in those edges in tight it’s stiff It will not be tacky like the Roberts so it may not work with your current technique. Something I do to make sure I can get my spray adhesive all the way to the edge is I put masking tape over the exposed yarn so I can get closer to the edge and then for the backing I just make sure there’s something under it so I can spray over the edges. Your rugs look great though, I’ll definitely be looking for that backing. So far I’ve only used felt and they’re slick af lol

@defense360 3 года назад

Hey! What type of felt do you like to use for backing? I'm considering switching to felt just cause it seems cheaper.

@SamSam-esqe 3 года назад

@@defense360 I used just regular felt from Jo-Ann Fabrics. It works fine but again it’s very slick on a hardwood floor. If you go that route get the little sticky rug tags from Home Depot or Lowe’s to help keep it in place!

@manlymcstud8588 3 года назад

@@defense360 if you're going to sell these things, it should be easy to sell the customer on this method since it's already an expensive custom item anyway. if they won't come up off an extra $30 or so for durability, safety, and comfort, let them shop the guys who use the cheapest materials and tell them good luck. sell them on the fact that you're not profiting from the extra expense, and that you get what you pay for.

Thanks so much for your videos! It's been a really helpful addition to the Tuft the World ones. I am sitting here with my glued rug and backing and it's so stiff that I just can't get it to waterfall over the side. I feel like I'm going to be able to see the canvas when I add the backing. Am I gluing too far to the edge of my rug? Any advice would be most appreciated! I'm in Glassell Park btw so hi neighbor!

@sparkle4051 2 года назад

Love your rugs. You are very talented. Are these rugs machine washable? I crocheted a couple of rugs. At Joann Fabrics, I was advised to buy material that is used on the bottom of baby pj's footies. It is anti-skid. Time will tell how well this option works.

@bryvncvstrx 2 года назад

In the process of finishing my first rug. How long should I let the glue dry before putting the backing on?

@klapops 2 года назад

So I've spent the last 4 hours of my life with you. THANK YOU for being so willing to share your experiences with this. 4 hours ago I didn't v even realize you could make your own rug. Now, I can't live another day without making a rug. So quick question... And forgive v me I'd you've c already answered this somewhere. In one of your be videos - I forget which one - you mentioned you b would be exploring low VOC options for adhesive. That's kind of a think for me so it might be a major barrier for me. Have you been able to make any headway on that? Thnx again. You rock!

@decembermoore2421 3 года назад

Hi! I’ve been loving all your videos and recently started following you on Instagram as well. I just had the realization that I’ve never had a rug shipped to me and was wondering your packing process. Do the rugs need to stay flat or could they be rolled up? Can’t wait to see more from you (:

@AJMAKES137 3 года назад

Ah yes, shipping is part of the process I’m still working on improving. The rugs are definitely foldable and rollable, which helps with shipping. I will usually fold or roll it, tie it with some yarn, and ship it in a box via usps. Once I get the process down a bit more, maybe I’ll do a video on it 😊

You should invest in some Duckbill Scissors - theyre a total game changer when it comes to doing your final trim-down if you don't use an electric shear :)

@NoFunStudio 3 года назад

They allow you to keep the scissors flat against the rug surface, reallllly helps the wrist and hands when youre hours deep
