- it's been quite a journey full of sock puppet dramatizations and real life failures to get to making the punch needle rugs i've come to love making and sharing online. I am by no means an expert on the craft and skill that is almost 2 centuries old but i've linked some great places to start and learn more if you want to learn with my half watched video method.
I hope this video answers some frequent questions about my personal process and work and I look forward to sharing more with you in the future :)

You are Crafty Hoot !🦉🦉🦉 I really felt it when you said “I watch like 3 videos and then I’m a pro!”- that’s so me . I’m a primitive rug hooker that just discovered the needle punch . You have accomplished exactly what I want to do- big rug, tufting gun. You art is insanely cool!
I did latchkey rugs in the 80s! I have so much yarn from knitting and crocheting, 4ftx4ft box. I am watching these videos for different ideas. I have found two that might be unique for tufting. Thank you for sharing your talent and expertise.
Girl the art is in you. Don’t ever stop your self. You’re going places . ❤❤
ur sock puppet addition in this vid is so silly, very relatable video why did i also do the same thing w the frozen movies!?! lmao
You’re funny, and very entertaining. Which makes a great teacher! Thanks!!😂🤣💓
You are freaking amazing! I love the painting you have in this video. I got a hand turn punch needle years ago from a well know rug maker in Washington state and haven't used it because I'm ADD and try to master every craft and art on the planet (which really doesn't work) and raise two kids which for some reason takes a lot of time. I'm obsessed by tools and totally get you and your dad and tools! And am finally getting back to the hand crank punch! Your video is brilliant.. just what I needed to see for large scale and painterly approach which for some reason I couldn't find anywhere else???. Thank you!
I love this! Especially how your were able to Overcome your obstacles! Keep Going!
Just bought my first punch needle, you gave me so much inspiration. Love from Italy xx
I love that you made the rug by hand punch needle..and not the big machine lol ...awesome..alot of work...😮
Hey girl I love that you do it yourself that's the way I am also. What I found was to use carpet strip tacks and nail them to your frame and then you don't have to staple I think there is a video on doing this I've made like four different sizes and the tag strips cost like $3 for three of them that are 4 ft long.
So excited you made this vid!! Saw how much effort you put into it and it definitely payed off xxx
Absolutely gorgeous design!
Wow! I love how creative you are!
This was so inspirational! I just subscribed, really love this video.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. You are hilarious!
Whoa, so absolutely amazing and intriguing to watch my dear friend :)
Very helpful complete video thanks :)
Lmtweet, just want you to know: You have the cutest, bestest smile ever. (I'm a 70 yr young lady from NZ so don't go getting some sweetheart ideas now) xxxx
Your rug is going to be beautiful ❤️ very creative
0:34 haha that part seriously spoke to me, lmao I have to stop the mjhvfsxchuv too.
I want you to know that we may be the same person. I also watched some videos of punch needling and got supplies twice and both times it didn’t work and I got so fucking mad. Finally got it right this third time. But no one tells you what needle size corresponds to the right type of monks cloth! Literally all the videos and tutorials are like get a needle and monks cloth so easy!
Thank you so much for this video and the inspiration I got from you! I found your Instagram account few weeks ago and emidiately ordered my first punch needling supplies :)
LOVE!
Love this video
Hahah I just love the chaos in this video!
I know right?! I feel like she's the secret inner artist we all want to be if we were chill enough 😂
Soorrreeee its me again! What is the name of your beautiful kitty. Oh so gorgeous (found out how much it would cost to have it transported to nz but the price was a bit heavy so skip that idea)
I completely agree with you! Between ADHD and mom brain I can't handle 20 minutes of filler info 😂
Lmao @ this dramatization!! I can’t stop watching this!
You had me rolling 😂
DONT FEEL BAD....I AM JUST NOW!!!!!! GETTING STARTED!!!!! THIS HAPPENED TO ME WITH P-VALLEY....DON'T ASK!!!
Your do cute n funny 😍😍 your personality it super lit🤩😍🤩
Inspo
ARE YOU A SCORIPO?????? HAHAHAHA!!!!!
