learn tufting

Sabira was introduced to tufting several years ago, when it was still discreet. She explains in this book all the techniques of tufting, which she had the time to test and practice, as well as the equipment. You might as well benefit from the best advice to get started in this activity, which requires space and a real investment in equipment! Before tufting, follow the advice of a professional to master the basics of this craft technique, buy the equipment, prepare your workspace and be ready to get started. Start by learning the essential gestures (tufting the details, detailing the shapes, working the background, etc.) and the finishes. Then embark on one of the 15 tutorials explained in step by step photos, such as carpets, of different sizes and shapes, wall tapestries, a cushion, coasters, a flowerpot or a brooch. The most of this book? Create your own tufting patterns! The patterns designed by Sabi_biche are printed at real size on a pattern board. All you have to do is have fun putting them together to create your own tufting design.
