Unravel the art of turning intricate images into beautiful and unique rugs! This class focuses on breaking down a reference photo to create a simplified, but realistic, rug map for easy tufting.

You will learn:

What to look for in a good reference photo.
How to choose representative colours or values from your reference.
How to map out your reference to create a recognizable subject.
What to think about when deciding on your yarn colours.

I'll also provide a basic run-down of how I make my rugs, and give you tips and tricks along the way!

During this class, I assume you already have a little tufting experience or that you've watched my Rug Tufting Gun for Beginners class. I will skim over the technical skills for actually creating the rug itself. You could very likely make a full rug from this class alone! But if you want a more in-depth discussion on each step in the rug-making process, please check out my other class.
