Tufting
On the lookout for something new and creative to try? Join our exciting tufting class in Winchester, where you’ll learn the art of tufting and create your own 30x30cm rug or wall-hanging to take home.
When people first see a tufting set up they are often intrigued in what tufting is. Tufting is a form of rug making that has been around for many years. Using a power assisted tufting machine, you shoot yarn into woven fabric to create a fluffy or looped rug.
Tufting has been revolutionised in recent years due to the availability and affordability of industrial machines. Although the initial look of the machine can be intimidating, with the right pressure and angle you can create some beautiful and effective pieces. It's great to see such a traditional craft form adapt with modern technology to create a unique crafting experience.
Date night? Need an evening away from the kids? Or just fancy learning a fun new craft? Come try your skills with our brand new evening classes!
In this session, you'll have the opportunity to create a 30x30cm sized rug/wall-hanging in two and a half hours. The best part? Just bring yourselves! With everything from equipment to various optional designs all provided and available for you.
Don't worry if you're not the best artist, our in store projector can help with that!
Please note: all tufted pieces made in the workshop take 1-2 weeks to back and glue. If you would like your rug posted to you there will be a small charge of £4 to be paid on the day.

Design Junction was a little dream thought up by us whilst we were studying at University of Southampton. We found that in Winchester there was a huge gap in the market for creativity and we wanted to build a welcoming community where creative’s can learn together and thrive outside of an educational establishment.
Back in 2019 we began Winchester Life Drawing Club where we met many wonderful people who connected us to the thriving creative culture within Winchester. Fast forward to 2021 and we were lucky enough (and persistent enough) to be given the opportunity to open our own venue thanks to the help of Winchester City Council. With Jake graduating with a BA in Fine Art and Amy graduating with a BA in Textile (Knitwear) Design, we put our heads together and came up with a concept that would boost the local area and bring an original concept to the centre of Winchester. We hate to the be gatekeepers of creativity so teaching skills we have learnt along our artistic path is what makes us thrive. We believe that art should be shared and experienced together without breaking the bank, that’s why we offer creative classes that everyone can enjoy for a fair price.
Design Junction is always adapting and evolving like any small business. In the future we look forward to offering a whole range of new quirky crafts for you all to enjoy. If you’re a creative looking to experience art with other like minded individuals pop in to our shop at any time, we love a chat.
