Avery Chase is an artist based in Gainesville, Florida that loves making projects with tufting and punch needle. She had been present in various exhibitions, workshops, markets to sell her projects. Currently she will be having two punch needle workshops which is a similar activity yet cheaper than tufting, so if you want to do rug tufting we highly recommend you to start with punch needle with one of her workshops.
