I have always enjoyed crafting and the ability to create something with my own two hands brings me immense satisfaction. I tend to get lost in the process and lose track of time, sometimes staying up all night.

Due to limited resources, I started with punch needle, which is similar to tufting but done by hand. Although it can take several hours to create a small rug, the end result is worth the time and effort, and I feel proud of my accomplishments.

I found the tufting gun to be heavier and more difficult to control than expected, but the level of detail in the final product was impressive. I designed the rug ahead of time and was excited to see the outcome. I would be interested in attending more workshops when I have the opportunity.
