Hi there! Here's an asmr-ish, overdubbed time-lapse of me creating my Drag Queen of Hearts rug. I chose to hang this rug on my wall. If I were to sell the rug, I would back it with some fabric, but because it's staying in my home, I just sewed some D-ring hooks on the back so I could hang it up 😊
Sorry about the audio quality-I'm new at this but will be getting a microphone soon!

Hi AJ! Thank you so much for your amazing videos and sharing your knowledge! I am curious about your spool set up to keep the right tension - I know on the video with frame kit you had the spool rig attached to the right of the frame, but for your own bigger frame what solution are you using now?

@AJMAKES137 3 года назад

I'll share more on this soon! But I actually lean the starter kit frame up against my big frame and use the yarn feeder from that. It's hacky but it works!

@zoeysayles4866 3 года назад

Hi! I love your videos and I tuft as well. Just curious if you could do a video or talk briefly about how you make sure your yarn feeds through correctly and your setup if you've made one for feeding yarn. The biggest problem and time consumer I have while tufting is that my yarn falls out, or the the change in tautness can make my work uneven. Thanks so much!

@AJMAKES137 3 года назад

Ahhh the struggle!! I’m very familiar with that. It’s probably the most important part of tufting IMO - I think I’ll do a video on this. But in brief, i would recommend getting a yarn winder if possible and creating your own yarn cones. It’s very difficult to feed from bundles because they often snag. Ever since I started using yarn cones, I haven’t had this issue.

@Megan10yes 3 года назад

I audibly gasped in delight seeing it on the wall. This is so beautiful and you've inspired me to invest in learning how to tuft! My machine is on the way and I'm thrilled to get started. Do you have any hot tips or advice for going into creating the first piece? Thank you for sharing your process and love for this beautiful craft.

@AJMAKES137 3 года назад

Thank you so much 🥺💓 and I’m so glad to hear it!! I plan to make a tips for beginners video soon, so thanks for the encouragement! I’d say start with my other videos-they are very beginner friendly. But my biggest advice is to have a lot of patience and make sure you’re in a good mood and enjoying yourself while learning! It takes time to get it down and I think it’s important to have fun in the process.

I usually put backing on my rugs! But because this was hanging on the wall in my own home, I chose to keep the back bare. If I ever sell it, I will likely put some fabric on the back

How do you finish the edges? I would assume when you cut out the piece from the monk cloth that the yarn wouldn’t completely cover the edges?

@AJMAKES137 3 года назад

This is a tough question... I haven’t quite figured it out yet. I know how much yarn I need for the queer doormat rugs I make now because I’ve made them so many times. But this was the largest piece I made and I didn’t realize how much yarn it would take

@bluemanta6923 3 года назад

@gilbertogaytan216 3 года назад

Would you recommend tufting rugs as a hobby with how expensive it is? I make art in many forms of media, and I just like making things in general and I have been interested in tufting for a while. I don’t think I’m looking to start a business I just think the self fulfillment that comes out of this would be amazing and I think this could be something I enjoy.

@AJMAKES137 3 года назад

I love this question! And I will be totally honest with you - it is pricey. I’m going to do a video that outlines all the necessary costs and nice to have costs. But I’d say, if you are able to invest around $500-700, then yes it’s an incredibly satisfying and rewarding hobby. Great for gift giving and for filling your home with beautiful pieces!

Heyy its a beautiful rug!! Thank u for this vid and I have one question.. how is the loop pile rug finished ? Like i see lots of vids cutting extras and evening out for cut pile but what about the other kind? Is it pulled out from other side or?

@AJMAKES137 3 года назад

With a loop pile, you can trim the pieces that get too long on the rug (which happens sometimes) but you can’t generally trim the rug because you want to maintain the loop look. Also, you can’t pull at the yarn because you risk pulling out large chunks from the piece. Since a loop pile doesn’t cut at all, all the yarn is connected unless you manually cut it. Difficult to explain, but maybe I’ll make a video once I learn how to use the loop pile gun properly 😅

@user-yi8rt3pq3x 3 года назад

AJ MAKES thank youuu, I know what your trynaa say it kinda makes sense. I bought a loop gun as a first option and I was wondering how it’ll be

@howsitben 3 года назад

thank you for making this video! just wondering if you have any tips for getting inexpensive tufting cloth? most monks cloth I see is very expensive

@AJMAKES137 3 года назад

I can't personally speak to using anything other than tufting fabric (which I get from tuftinggun.com). It isn't cheap, but it works perfectly. I often have people reach out to me asking why their gun keeps cutting holes in monks cloth, and I can't help but wonder if it has something to do with the monk's cloth itself. Tufting fabric provides a lot of give in between the threads, which allows the head of the gun to easily move in and out of the fabric. So, it's an expense that is worth it, IMO.
