    I’ve watched countless vids since I’ve started tufting two years ago ..you’re literally the only one who showed bevel carving..thank you for this

    Out of all the channels helping with this topic this video by far is the most helpful. It’s wild how stunning a rug can become after some time with a pair of scissors

    This is so far the best video ever on this topic!! Thanks so much for this! I love the different levels in the finishing rugs, I am too impatient to go to the bevel carving 😂 but it’s nice to know there is a whole world of carving beyond just trimming and making lines straight! Thanks a lot!

    You have the MOST helpful video on carving on youtube in my

    The scissors section was amazing. I was having trouble with details blending together. Digging the point to the fabric and flicking up to separate the colors was the game changer. Thank you for taking the time to explain it and show it ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

    I found you randomly late last night. I've been doing research on making rugs. So far you are literally the only one who gets into detail about things other people do not even mention. And I'm obsessing over the fact that you have some beautiful swords on your wall. Lol can you use a punch needle to do the same thing as a tufting gun?

    • @ChrystalChristie
      @ChrystalChristie  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      thank you so much! hahaha love my swords ⚔️ and yes you can, punch needle is like the original version of this craft! it’s just takes a lot more time but most times you can get a lot more detail with punch needle :)

    • @ChrystalChristie
      @ChrystalChristie  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      took me a few tries but with the smaller rugs i get really long pins and pin them onto the back wall. Otherwise with the larger rugs I used clips on them and tied ribbons off that to hang them from the top of the wall 😁 i also had a few rugs on the table for people to touch. Some people use coat hangers with clips on them to hang them from a rack too
      Goodluck with your shop!!

She was not clumsy And was born perfect. I'm pretty sure embarrassing her constantly caused her to hide if there was any risk of making a huge ass of myself because I'm let's say "ACCIDENT PRONE." LOL. That being said, hell ya bust out the danger-girl high-speed go-go gadget rug tufting gun (did I mention I'm accident prone?) And absolutely fire up the stoopid sharp sheep shearing digit removers next. Lmfao J/K thanks for the video.

    The folding part seems like a waste of time but if you don’t want edges to fray it’s important to fold the edges it locks the tufting fabric threads there’s literally just rubber glue holding your rug together if your fabric isn’t secure

    • @ChrystalChristie
