Hello...nice work. What kind of glue do you use?
I absolutely love your designs! I really struggle with sewing close enough to the tufted piece when sewing, do you have any tips on sewing as close as possible? I think it’s because of the thickness that I struggle
Thank you!! It's definitely a challenge with how thick the tufted sections are. I found that it helps to go slowly and use the hand wheel as needed :-) I'm sure having an industrial type machine would also help, but that isn't a necessity!
But like what industrial sewing machine can not get stuck with the gummy glues ????????we need to knowww!!!
Amei amei
Love it!!!
What is that machine called?
You can reproduce vintage comforters with it!!! I want it!!
Thank you! It's called a tufting gun :-)
Hermoso trabajo, te felicito! Cuantas horas tardaste haciendo todo?
Thank you!! I’m not totally sure. This whole frame of projects was done over the course of about 3 months but I didn’t really track each one
So beautiful! Is it washable?
Thank you!! It can be spot cleaned, but not machine washed :-)
Oye, que bonita camiseta la del dibujo con encaje
Wow! This is great work! Just came across your video. I’d like to start making cushion covers like you did(I’m glad I know how to sew😊). But I’d like to start off with just tufting a few areas on the cover (maybe a flower or two) rather than filling it up completely like you did-atleast until I get better at it! As someone who has never done tufting before(I am quick to learn things), I have a few questions: Does it matter what fabric I use? Or can I use just about any fabric with any type of yarn? What’s the best gun and products I have to use? Also, I am in Uganda, Africa and will obviously have to ship the items from abroad but I’d really like to do this for some extra income! I’d appreciate your advice on the above! 🙏🏾
Hi there! Thank you!! To answer your questions, yes you need to use a primary backing fabric like the one I used here. I don’t think the machine will work properly with other fabrics. But you can use pretty much any yarn! I always recommend wool since it’s the best quality and easiest to work with in my opinion. I’ve purchased almost all of my supplies from Tuft the World. They have great beginner resources for getting started!
What glue do you use for tuffing
Excelente trabajo!
Una pregunta, me gustaría hacer un bastidor de madera como el que usas, puedes darme medidas del mismo y de su base?
Thank you! :) I used this guide from Tuft the World when I built my frame. Hopefully this is helpful!

Which glue did u use? Plz guide...
Brutal
great job. what kind of threads do you use?
I use wool rug yarn!
Great video and work! I hope you’re doing ok!
Thank you!
Do you sew the cotton fabric to the tufting cloth left on the edge of the piece or do you sew the cotton fabric to the edges that have been tufted and glued? I have minimal sewing experience so I’m wondering if the tufting fabric is sturdy enough to be sewn. Thank you!
I tried to sew as close as I could to the tufted portion so that there wouldn't be a weird gap between the cotton fabric and the yarn, if that makes sense. It's tricky because once the adhesive dries on the back of the rug it gets very hard, so you can't really sew through that part. To make it easier I would recommend not letting any glue get on the backing fabric outside of the tufted portion so you can get closer to that edge. I hope that helps!
@@CraigMillerStudio makes sense thank you!
สวยมาก
can you post the files for ur designs? would love to try myself!
Great work! What's the name of the fabric you used for the backs of each pillow?
Thank you! I made the pillow enclosure backings from a basic cotton fabric, I'm not sure exactly what it's called!
What is the name of the glue you used?
I have a problem with the sewing gun that cuts the thread on both sides and does not weave. What is the solution?
Молодец
Hey there,
What was the liquid/oil you put on your gun at the beginning?
It's a sewing machine oil!
Hello, I have a few questions please. Glue is not a bit toxic to use as a cushion? If we want to sell cushions, will it be legal? Or should we use non-toxic glue if it exists? And in terms of washing, how is it going? Is it possible to wash in a machine?
Hey!! The adhesive that I used here is just an Elmer’s PVA which is non-toxic. You can’t machine wash it though unfortunately, the glue would break down. I recommend spot cleaning lightly as needed!
@@CraigMillerStudio TYSM =)
I do not know how to work with it, it cuts the thread from both sides. How can I solve this problem? Can you help me?
Where do you buy your yarns and how often you put oil in the gun
I buy my yarn from tuftinggun.com ! I typically oil my machine at the beginning and end of each project, and every once in a while throughout each project. I don't really have a set schedule that I follow, I just try to pay attention to when there's a lot of fiber build up and it seems like it needs to be cleaned/oiled!
Hi!)) what kind of glue do you use? 😊
I used an Elmer's PVA for this project!
great!!!, please could you give me the link where I can buy the machine.
Yeah! I got mine here: tuftinggun.com/
Hello. I have a question. Would like to make a wool blanket out of wool rowing! Not from yarn! It is fluffy and soft, and looks like a sheep fleece! Is it possible to make one using this machine? If yes,please consult me of what to get, how to work etc.
Will be appreciated if you can help with answering
I don’t have any experience with that, but my guess would be probably not!

Que programa sirve para hacer el dibujo a las medidas reales que se necesita? ( Me refiero a que se proyecte con el tamaño real). Gracias y like
I created the designs in Adobe Illustrator! From there when I set up the projector I just manually measured to make sure each design was the accurate size.
@@CraigMillerStudio gracias. Volví a ver tu vídeo, un trabajo muy bien hecho.
Usaste látex? Que tal con el lavado en lavadora y lo último es lana acrílica. Gracias, mi pistola llegará en 2 semanas 😊 y gracias por responder mi comentario en español ❤
@@olaola5889 Of course! I don't speak Spanish well so I'm using Google translate haha. I hope I'm interpreting your comments correctly :-) I used an Elmer's PVA glue for this project! I would not machine wash these, I recommend spot cleaning by hand only. As far as yarn types I use pretty much exclusively wool yarn. It's much easier to work with, and the final product will last much longer than acrylic yarn. Best of luck getting into tufting, I hope you love it!
is pva glue suitable for washing the pillow cases? won't it melt on contact with water and soap?
I LOVE your work! so NEAT and great designs, too!
Thank you!! I wouldn’t machine wash these, but they should hold up to spot cleaning just fine :)
@@CraigMillerStudio oh yes, absolutely right!
Is it possible to use fusible backing 🤔
Good idea, I’ve never tried that! But I do remember watching a video from ‘Sam Made That’ where they tested it on a pillow they made. That might give you some more info!
What kind of recommendation do you give your customers in how to clean the pillows?
Here are my general rug care guidelines!
- Vacuum or hand brush your rug as needed. If your vacuum has an adjustable suction option, use on a low level.
- Gently blot to remove stains using a cloth, lukewarm water, and possibly a ph-neutral + bleach-free cleaner for stubborn stains.
- Avoid getting your rug overly wet to preserve the glue binding. Do not use in damp environments.
- Never machine wash, dry clean, or use harsh chemicals on your rug.
Why did you see the tufted piece and then see it again to the cloth backing? Is it not a good idea to just sew them together all at the same time?
The first pass of sewing was with a zigzag stitch to bind the edges of the rug backing! That helps prevent fraying. The second pass was to attach the cloth, which I wanted to sew as close to the actual tufted portion as possible to avoid having a gap.
Great idea! I just made my very first rug but I think I will also try to make pillows. Do you have any tips? :)
Congrats on your first rug!! The main difference with making a pillow in my opinion is being really careful about measurements, and trying not to distort the piece as you work on it. It’ll help make the construction portion a lot easier :)
How do you prevent from having a border of tufting cloth showing around the piece?
You have to sew over a portion of the yarn so that there isn’t a gap! I’ve found that it helps a lot to shave down the outer edge to get it as flat / thin as you can so it’s easier to go over. It probably depends on your machine though!
Where’d you get your hand chair?
HandShapedChairs on Etsy!
hi what kind of glue did you use?
Elmer’s PVA :)
where did you buy your frame?
I built this frame actually! I followed a tutorial on Tuft the World :-)

Which wool is used & Glue???
I used wool rug yarn from Tuft the World, and an Elmer’s PVA glue!
Braoooo

wat glue did u use?
I used an Elmer’s PVA glue for these :-)
@@CraigMillerStudio u know wat sewing machine u use??
@@epicponygirl308 It’s a brother brand machine, I got it off amazon but I don’t remember the exact model! Definitely a cheaper machine
Tipo de hilado?
wool!
Can you wash it though
You can spot clean them! I wouldn’t machine was them though.
@@CraigMillerStudio thank you for your reply
WHY IS IT ONLY WITH ONE STRING?! If you do 2 strings at a time, you save time and you get a thicker rug
Oh I just realized you only got one video lol
