Hey AJ, just discovered your channel and im in love. Looking to get into tufting soon - background in architecture and paint. I've learned alot already from your videos! keep up the good work.
Where did you get those black work tables? I have this tufting frame and would love to have the table to make my space feel more cozy and organized! Love your videos
Congrats on following your own and in the process following your heritage! And on the new studio, and sponsor!! I’ve been watching your videos since the beginning and happy to see your evolution. You’re killin it, sis! 💕♊️ Greetings from Dayton OH!
You are amazing, I love your vibe and all your work!! One day I hope to attend your workshop!! I’ve completed 5 rugs so far and loveeee tuft the world!
Hello! Love all of your helpful videos! And I hope all is going well with the studio! I was wondering if you knew whether or not I could shave a looped rug and get the cut look successfully? Thank you so much for taking the time to answer and help out a fellow tufter!
Hi AJ! Wondering about the projector you use. I'm getting ready for my first large project for which I'll need a projector. Started looking into them and quickly got overwhelmed with how many different ones are out there! They all emphasize the use of the projector for watching stuff vice tracing stuff. Which do you use? And, is that one "good enough" or is there one you'd rather have if you had no limiting factors? Thanks and happy tufting!!
Hi! I love all of your videos and I find them very helpful in starting tufting myself! I have one question about yarn tho. I want to make "wallpictures/rugs" and stool mat etc, but with reused yarn. I knit alot, and know a company here in Norway that I can cooperate with in getting left over yarn. Can I use basically any yarn out there, if you get where I am going at? Like all these different wool types as we use for knitting sweaters etc?
AJ, can you please make a video about what apps and things that you use to draw your designs before you project the image? This is my biggest difficulty at the moment with my own rugs. Also do you use a drawing tablet or an iPad to do so?
I have been hand tufting rugs and just got the rug gun. However, when I practice (I use cut pile, it came ready for that so I stuck with it) it seems that no matter how close my lines are the rug doesn’t appear full. I can see gaps where the cloth will show through. Any tips?
hey aj! i'm looking for a new sturdy table for my tufting frame and i was wondering where you got those tables for your workshops? they look like exactly what i need!
One question I don’t think Iv seen from anyone but I’m just getting into this & was wondering for how long can I keep a rug on my frame stretched out before my cloth gets ruined?
Hi AJ, yes, im in Los Angeles and love to come to you studio for a workshop learning. When and how can we get in touch? I only watch on Utube. Let me know. Love your work. Savannah
Would absolutely love to see how you finish up that big piece as a follow up video to this. Thanks for always being so transparent and wonderful.
