Join this tufting workshop in Denby Dale, Huddersfield, and create your own bespoke 40cm x 20cm decorative mat. You'll spend a relaxing session learning the tactile art of tufting while crafting a piece that's perfect for a sideboard, desk, or even as unique wall art.
Your experienced teacher will guide you through the process, ensuring you feel confident using the equipment to bring your vision to life. You'll work with 100% acrylic yarn in up to three colours of your choice, and every piece is finished with a soft, grippy backing to make it as practical as it is beautiful. The studio is a welcoming ground-level space where you can switch off and focus on your project while enjoying a selection of warm and cold drinks and light snacks.
  • Choose your design of scalloped or straight edged mat – Pick an inspiration that reflects your style and prepare your palette with up to three colours.
  • Master the tufting gun – Get hands-on with the tools and watch your pattern emerge in vibrant yarn.
  • Professional finishing – Apply a soft, non-slip backing to ensure your creation is ready for any surface.
It's an uplifting way to spend a morning or afternoon in a lovely countryside village, just a short five-minute stroll from the train station. You'll walk away with a high-quality, handmade keepsake and the pride of having mastered a trendy new skill.
Please note: You must submit your chosen design via email no later than 48 hours before the workshop begins.

female Women-owned

Louka Studio & Co. is home to the creatives where we don't just think it...we TUFT IT!
Our studio is nestled in a cozy corner of West Yorkshire and is a sanctuary for all things tufted and all things creative. We are a mother/daughter duo - Louise & Keri. We each share backgrounds in both people development and the creative space. Louise studied BA(Hons) in Architecture and MSc Corporate Real Estate, while Keri studied BA(Hons) Fashion Management and Communication, working for an events company upon graduating, designing events and experiences. We each work in people development with qualifications in behavioral profiling and team dynamics as trainers for businesses across all industries. We feel passionately about bringing people together with the purpose of creation as well as providing a safe space for mental well-being and coordinating mind and body. We are all unique, and we each learn in different ways and at different paces, and all we ask is you be yourself, true to your style in an inclusive space!
At the beginning of 2024, we experienced a tufting workshop together as a chance to learn something new, take something home with us that we made together, and leave all our worries at the door. We wasted no time in setting up a home studio, creating beautiful pieces for our own homes, alongside selling our designs and taking commissions.
Our Louka Studio & Co. premises offer creative studio space, born from the many requests from clients and the public to come and do a workshop with us. We opened our doors in December 2025 and have welcomed wonderful projects, people, and tufts into the business since. We stock a wide variety of yarn colors to create fun and quirky artwork/rugs as well as abstract, simplistic, functional, and tonal pieces. Muted and textured designs are popular, with landscapes and natural organic shapes as well as pet portraits and animal designs.
