Tufting is a handcrafted technique that allows you to make custom rugs and home furnishings.
With Nodo – Tufting Torino‘s help, you will be able to play with the textures and colors of the yarns by weaving them on the canvas with the tufting gun.
Each participant will be able to create his or her artwork of size 40x40cm, choosing from a selection of graphics proposed by the tutors, and personalize it thanks to the wide choice of colors available.
The workshop is divided into two phases. During the first part, the operation of the tufting gun will be explained and the materials for making the rug will be introduced.
In the second part, after fixing the work on the canvas, the stages of shaving and defining the rug will be addressed as well as the tricks necessary to achieve a professional result right from the start
