See how a detailed cat portrait rug is made in just 3 hours! This time-lapse shows the entire process, from tufting the different colors to vacuuming and finishing the piece.
This is the tool that makes all the magic happen: the tufting gun! In my workshop, I'll give you a full tutorial on how to use it safely and effectively to create your design.
Here's a peek at the learning process. You'll see how a student creates a teddy bear rug, from the initial tufting to the final trimming and finishing touches.
This satisfying time-lapse shows an abstract, multi-colored rug coming together line by line. It's amazing to watch the yarn fill the fabric and create a vibrant, textured piece of art.

It all starts with yarn! We provide a wide variety of vibrant, colorful yarns for you to choose from, so you can make your design exactly as you imagine it.
About From Yarn to Rug: The Process
The tufting gun looks like an intimidating tool, but it is actually quite intuitive once you get the hang of the motion. Don't worry about making mistakes; the beauty of this process is that yarn is very forgiving. If you do not like how a section looks, you can simply pull the yarn out and re-tuft that area until the texture is exactly the way you want it.
Whether you are a complete beginner or looking for a new hobby in Bengaluru, our studio is all about low-pressure, high-fun creation. Our process starts with choosing your design. For our 8-inch mini sessions, we recommend simple geometric shapes or initials to get a feel for the machine. For 14-inch rugs, the canvas is larger, allowing for intricate character designs or logos, which we help you trace onto the fabric with a projector for precision.
Once you are set up, we teach you the safety basics of the cut-pile tufting gun. The rhythm is the most important part. Once you find that flow, the 3-hour session flies by. We provide all the materials, including monk's cloth, an entire wall of acrylic yarn, and frames.
After you finish your tufting, the magic phase happens. We apply the quick-dry latex backing to secure your stitches and then perform the final shearing. This step trims the yarn pile to an even, clean finish, giving your piece that professional, 3D look. You walk home with your finished rug the same day, ready to hang or display.
