Beschreibung:

 Create your own rug ? with a tufting gun! In this workshop, you will learn the key aspects of this creative method of textile creation, and you will make your own small rug (45 cm x 45 cm). No specific prior knowledge is required. At the beginning, you will learn the basic techniques of tufting and how to use a tufting gun. Then, we will create our own designs/patterns. You can combine different colours and create a unique rug shape. Please bring a rough design, whether it's just an image in your head or on paper. The necessary materials and tools will be provided by the teacher (see note below). Each participant will produce a rug of their own design to take home.
Note: You have to stand while you do tufting. The weight of the tufting gun - which you have to hold while tufting - is about 1.5 kg.


The course will be held in English. The course instructor can answer your questions in German and Japanese.
