If you‘re interested in learning about rug tufting, there are plenty of tufting workshops in Ottawa. Tufting is a relatively easy craft to learn, and it‘s a great way to create beautiful, one–of–a–kind rugs. In a tufting workshop, you‘ll learn how to use a tufting gun to create loops of yarn in a fabric backing. To start with this art you need a tufting gun and of course not everyone can acquire one, that’s why many prefer to go to workshops that have all materials and tools included.
You can then use these loops to create patterns and designs in your rug. Tufting is a great way to add texture and interest to a plain piece of fabric, and it‘s also a lot of fun. There are a number of different tufting workshops available in Ottawa, so you can choose one that fits your schedule and your budget. Most workshops include all of the materials you‘ll need to get started, so you can just show up and start tufting.
Sadly we haven’t found tufting workshops being held in Ottawa, but there are a couple of artists who are dedicated to rug tufting that might help you if you contact them. Due to the demand many of them decide to launch their workshops, so you don’t lose anything by asking.
