    Hi there! Here's an asmr-ish, overdubbed time-lapse of me creating my Drag Queen of Hearts rug. I chose to hang this rug on my wall. If I were to sell the rug, I would back it with some fabric, but because it's staying in my home, I just sewed some D-ring hooks on the back so I could hang it up 😊
    Sorry about the audio quality-I'm new at this but will be getting a microphone soon!

    • @AJMAKES137
      @AJMAKES137  Před 3 lety

      I can't personally speak to using anything other than tufting fabric (which I get from tuftinggun.com). It isn't cheap, but it works perfectly. I often have people reach out to me asking why their gun keeps cutting holes in monks cloth, and I can't help but wonder if it has something to do with the monk's cloth itself. Tufting fabric provides a lot of give in between the threads, which allows the head of the gun to easily move in and out of the fabric. So, it's an expense that is worth it, IMO.

    Hi! I love your videos and I tuft as well. Just curious if you could do a video or talk briefly about how you make sure your yarn feeds through correctly and your setup if you've made one for feeding yarn. The biggest problem and time consumer I have while tufting is that my yarn falls out, or the the change in tautness can make my work uneven. Thanks so much!

    • @AJMAKES137
      @AJMAKES137  Před 3 lety

      Ahhh the struggle!! I’m very familiar with that. It’s probably the most important part of tufting IMO - I think I’ll do a video on this. But in brief, i would recommend getting a yarn winder if possible and creating your own yarn cones. It’s very difficult to feed from bundles because they often snag. Ever since I started using yarn cones, I haven’t had this issue.
