3.5 hours Class size 1 to 5 guests       £130 (PayPal Pay in 3 available)

Come and get creative with yarn in this tufting workshop in Rotherham where you will make your own mini rug or wall hanging! This is a fantastic activity for all abilities, so if you're a complete beginner, you'll be guided every step of the way.
Tufting is a modern take on the traditional craft of rug making. In this workshop, you will learn how to use a cut-pile tufting gun, a tool that lets you create fluffy and colourful art pieces with your own designs. You'll have a dedicated space to practise and get comfortable with the equipment before starting on your final piece.
You will be working on a 45x45cm canvas where you can bring any design to life! Whether you fancy a quirky wall hanging, a mini rug, or a set of unique coasters, the choice is yours. To get the best results, it's a good idea to choose a design with simple block shapes and colours, as lots of detail can be tricky for a first-timer. You'll need to send your design idea at least 48 hours before the class so it can be prepared for you, or you can opt to draw it freehand on the day.
This class is focused on teaching you the fun part – how to tuft. Once you have completed your design, your teacher will professionally back and finish the piece for you. It will be ready for collection within five working days, or it can be posted to you for an additional postage fee.
This is a wonderful opportunity to try something new and craft a custom piece of art with your own hands. You'll finish the session with a revitalised sense of accomplishment and a totally unique, fluffy creation to decorate your home.
What you'll get

This is a tufting-focused workshop. Once you have tufted your design, I will back and finish your piece afterward. You will be able to pick up your work within 5 working days and will be emailed once it is ready to collect. Alternatively, I can post it to you. You will need to cover the full postage costs.

Hey I'm Amber :)
I started my tufting journey in September 2021, I graduated from Huddersfield University with a 1st where I studied Textiles design and specialised in Tufting- woven construction.
In 2025 i achieved my PGCE in secondary Design and Technology with Art. Expanding my rug tufting workshops to a wider audience in schools to inspire the next generation of designers.
​Currently, I have a home studio located in Sheffield. Here I offer and teach rug tufting workshops – making your own custom rugs to take home. During the workshop you will learn all the skills of tufting and how to use a cut pile tufting gun.
I also offer custom rug designs. My commissions are designed and produced to your style. This can be anything from recreating your favourite cartoon character, to designing personalised pet portraits (which is my favourite). I’m more than happy and excited to work with you on creating something from initial designs, bespoke, and meaningful.
All my rugs are created using a combination of tufting guns which offers a variety of texture and depth. The use of colour is a fundamental part of my work, I particularly enjoy working with a bright colour pallet, however I enjoy working with a simple black and white colour pallet too.
