FMT Lifestyle catches up with an enthusiast of the craft to check out its appeal.

SHAH ALAM: During the pandemic, many people amused themselves at home by learning peculiar things. Remember the Dalgona Coffee craze?Tee Sue Jean, now 29, decided to pick up tufting, a form of embroidery that uses a craft gun to shoot yarn through a fabric screen to produce a pattern of your design.

“In 2021,” she said, “I came across tufting and looked everywhere for workshops to learn it but I couldn’t find any. So, I resorted to watching tutorial videos online.” There are several steps involved in completing a rug of your own at Tee’s workshop. For example, you first have to draw your design on a canvas with the help of a projector. Then choose from the 80 yarn colours available before starting to tuft.“It would typically take around two to four hours, depending on the sizes we are making,” Tee said. “After ensuring everything is completed nicely, a special carpet glue is used at the back of the tufted piece to secure the yarn.

“You’d be surprised to hear that most parents are actually quite good at it, particularly the moms, as most of them are already familiar with threads and sewing.”The shop also caters to corporate teambuilding events, private birthday parties and bridal showers.
