Was a bit confused about why RUclips recommended me a video on how to punch needle a rug, but now I understand that RUclips knows me better than I know myself. That looks awesome and I suddenly feel that I really need to try to make a rug...
I have a habit of picking up a million different forms of crafting. I love it but I’m always wanting to try new things which means I need the supplies for these new things... once I go to get the supplies I get ideas for multiple different projects I want to do with this new skill I’m trying.. so, after spending a decent amount of money on supplies I’ll make a bunch of stuff and then lose interest. Now I have a bunch of supplies I’m determined to use at some point. 😓😅
With almost 2,000 comments, someone else may have already mentioned this tip to speed up the printing process. In Illustrator, set your Artboard to slightly larger than your image. The default is paper size, but you can make it any size you want. Make sure your whole image fits on the artboard. When you print, there will be a section on the screen called Options. In that section, click on the Scaling drop down menu, then choose Tile Full Pages. Illustrator will automatically break your image to print on multiple pages, and it will show you a preview of how many pages it will take. Hope this helped!
Here’s another way too: if you have a large TV and a laptop with Screen Mirroring abilities, pull up the image on your laptop, screen mirror it to your TV, and then place your frame against your TV. That way, it’ll be easier to trace your image if you don’t have a projector!
@@madalinamicusan9737 I'm sorry, but I am not able to duplicate the issue, so I'm not sure what would cause it. A quick google seems to indicate that it might be a printer driver conflict. Maybe try selecting a different printer (or print to PDF) to see if it persists. Otherwise, maybe ask in the r/AdobeIllustrator subreddit.
Shopping list of things you will need guys : - fabric (linen // monks cloth) - punch needle - cotton thread - painting frame - staple gun - marker/pencil
Your voice is so soothing! I feel like I'm watching an art ASMR You also inspired me to start drawing and painting, feels like I'm getting better every day and every video of yours I watch motivates me even more! Keep up it
There is so much about this that is awesome. The skill and creativity. I am just sitting here being impressed by the fact that you can both know all of these techniques well enough that it looks like muscle memory, and still have the ability to slow down and actually explain how you do it. Because learning how to do is one thing, and learning how to teach is another. Also, the result is beautiful.
Kat Blaque wow You’re literally every where Like every vid I watch, you have commented on, Do you comment on every vid you watch? Not hatin just statin.
This has to be the single MOST HELPFUL vid I’ve seen for methods on needle punching. I am so, so grateful for your shared wisdom and thoroughness. You answered a TON of questions. Oh, and LOVE the Cerberus design!
I love it when you randomly come across a creator and just straight up vibe with them from the start. Love the chill energy and how articulately you explain things. Subscribed and looking forward to more :)
I’ve always wondered how punch-needle rugs don’t just fall apart when you’re done! I suppose it also relies on the type of fabric used. Thank you for showing how you finish the rug, and instead of covering up the mistakes with the magic of editing, you use them as a teaching tool to show how to fix those mistakes!
Dear amazing person. I watched this video about ten days ago and was so inspired that I went out and got wool and a punch needle. I made my first punch needle "rug" actually a decoration that can be hung on a wall. I didn't even have suitable cloth so I did it on a plastic mosquito mesh. I advertised a bit on FB and got actually an order to make another and sold it today! Thank you for inspiring me!!!
It’s so nice to see something creative that isn’t just like 5 minute crafts 😭 I’m obsessed with your style!! Love your process + how much effort you put into your work
my boyfriend told me recently that he was interested in making a punch needle rug (which i know next to nothing about!) so for christmas i want to get him some supplies and make a little “starter kit.” this video was super clear and helpful about necessary materials & best practices! thanks so much for sharing, & beautiful work!
What a great tutorial! I appreciate that you took the time to explain how you used illustrator, I feel like a lot of people would have just skipped that part. A lot of people would also have just filmed a time-lapse without bothering to make it into a tutorial, so it speaks to your generosity that you take the time to do it this way, even if most people who watch this don't end up making something! I also love how chill you are. Totally subscribed:)
Man you rock, I have terminal cancer and I can't tell you just how much this video relaxed me.You are a true artist thank you for sharing this and God bless you 😘
I wish I hadn’t seen this 😭 It’s amazing and I really cannot afford another hobby! I can barely store the art supplies I have now 😂 I guess I know what project I’m tackling after I finish the one I’m working on now lol
Ok so I'm old. I remember this was a hobby of ours as kids BUT they were never that detailed. I didn't think anyone these days enjoyed this craft anymore💜 great work! Beautiful pieces
@@kagrimreaper Right, but we're saying we had no interest in, nor any knowledge that these even existed until the almighty RUclips algorithm brought us here. I have not looked into punch needle rugs since this video. I purely watched it for the sheer pleasure of it!
Absolutely fantastic. It's so cool to see a new aesthetic and colour schemes brought into something that might be considered a more old fashioned art. This is definitely hip and fresh and NOT 1970s.
Wanted to stop by and say you have reopened my outlandish mind. I was an artist stuck in a box and with punch needle and rug tufting, I'm creating again. This was the video that opened that box. Never stop creating. Love you bunches!
i have no desire to make a punch needle rug, and if we’re being completely honest i didn’t even know what a punch needle rug was until this came in my recommended, but i stayed because of the vibe and attention to detail. this was dope ❤️
This was such a detailed tutorial on how to punch needle from the very start to the end. It was cool see how you pull different elements from things that inspire you to make one really cool cohesive piece of art. I've never seen some do such a large punch needling piece! When I learned how to do it years ago everyone I knew used very fine needles. A lot of people would use literal syringes with a hole made in the side of the point. You end up needing much thinner yarn, and I don't know if you *need* to use tightly woven fabric for it, but at the time most people would look for the most tightly woven fabric they could find. It was often similar fabric to a linen tea towel. I think it was partly because people would embroider designs on the edges of kitchen towel and such, but also because it was *supposed to* hold your yarn better. Kinda makes sense if you're putting it through the wash I guess. You can get very nice fine detail that way, but dear lorrrd, that combination of things made learning how to do it quite frustrating. I'm really excited to try punch needle embroidery again with the tips you mentioned about what type of fabric works well. When I initially saw the thickness of the needle I was like "😲 how tf is that going to stay in the fabric", but it makes so much sense how you explained it. Many thanks! I really appreciate the video.
i feel like you would really love using an ipad and pro create. it would cut a lot these corners, not having to sketch and slowly use adobe! thanks for sharing your process tho! its fascinating and youre amazing!!!
Thank you for talking about the awkward art middle stage because it's one of the things that sends people running away from art - also using sneakers to choose color palettes is a tactic that I'm definitely going to use, too!
because of my anxiety there are periods of time when i can't listen to music or watch anything because the sound is too overstimulating, and your channel is genuinely a blessing 😭💕
Oh this seems exciting! I haven't watched all of this yet, I only just clicked in, but at the risk of sounding weird your voice is so soft and kind (matches your FACE, look at your beautiful eyes!), and your rings and hoodie are just so very stylish. 10/10 a wonderful human being I can tell, can't wait to learn a new craft skill from you.
i am so happy that youtube reccomend me this video. honestly your voice is so soothing and you explained all of this so well that it almost felt like this video was only five minutes long
Holy moly when you started cutting the work to outline i could just see myself giving up, that's dedication and that would have taken soo long. This is awesome
this is so cool. amazing!!! i can't believe i thought from the thumbnail it will be just a patch and then you were making a entire full carpet like,,,?? thanks for sharing your the process. that was really motivating
Yes really in a while.This is fantastic! Similar rugs are sold here in the shops, but never divulged if done by machine or hand. But his models are unique 😎
Wow! At some point I have to stop watching all these amazing youtube videos and get busy making some of the projects. Yours is the video that finally convinced me! THANK. YOU.
Love your whole vibe. Love how passionate you are about your art. Its true when they say purchases of art are mostly about the artist. New fan. Have you ever tried printing out large pieces using the automatic tiling feature? It automatically places every bit of the art onto seperate pages for you to the exsct size you specify. And old time billboard painters used to "pounce" their designs onto the large surface by tracing each color shape by making pin holes in the paper pattern and bouncing a bag of graphite powder over the holes thereby transferring the pattern without having to cut it out and keep the relationships intact. Perhaps you already knew these techniques, but just in case you experiment and find it saves you some time to make even more! I learned a lot about Illustrator from you and how to use a punch needle. I never could figure how its stitches stayed in!
I just found you through this video and I can't be more excited! I have finally figured out what I've been doing wrong with punch needle my whole life!!! Thank you!!!
This video is so chill and informative thank you sm I’ve been wanting to make a rug but didn’t know where to start this is so helpful!! And I looove your art
I know you have almost 2000 comments, and I hope you see mine! Thank you! I have been doing punchneedle for years and years, but not for making rugs. I do pictures with embroidery floss. Punching is so stress-relieving! I have been wanting to do rugs, and of course the place to learn anything is RUclips. I’ve watched quite a few videos about rug making. They’re all good and helpful, and in most they’re using a tufting gun. I guess I could do that, but I’m so used to the steady, relaxing handwork of punching that I’d miss it. Then your video shows up on my feed, and I’m so glad I decided to watch it. You gave me a thorough class, from the frame to the binding. I was worrying about using latex or other goo on the back. The back is as pretty as the front, and I was wondering if it needed to be used on a loops type rug. Now I know! I wouldn’t be making rugs for high traffic areas, anyway. I learned so much! Thank you for taking the time to give such a good demo. I’m ready to try it!
I loved the little speech about how during the process our art may not look the way that we want it to but that doesn't mean that we should give up. So nice.
who else is watching this video while doint your own rug? lol. I loveeee this video so much, plus your voice is so calming and the music is amazing. I would 100% buy that rug, it looks amazing. Congratulations!
Did not think the process would actually be that simple. Time comsiming doesn't bother me! I'm an avid knitter, cross stitched and all round crafter so will definitely be giving this a go. And well done this is an amazing instructional vid and a great rug
This is such a pretty rug with beautiful colors. I've been thinking about learning punch rugs recently and this is really making me really hype to start. Great work man
I have always loved yarn mediums, never knew about this til I came across this channel. knit/crochet hurts my hands these days, thinking this might be easier but satisfy my neeeeeeeed for yarn craft
I adore everything about this video, from the artistic aesthetic to the clear, concise instructions to his patient, calm voice. I am thoroughly impressed with his skill and dedication to his art.
I watched this video last month and just wanted to let you know that you got me interested into punch needle and it's now one of my new favorite hobbies! I've made several small projects so far and I think I'll be tackling making a big wall hanging or rug next! Thanks for the content and I love your art!
Wow, you did such an amazing job! I think you also just taught me what I've been doing wrong every time I try to do punch needle art lol. So thank you so much for not only sharing your brilliant creativity and techniques of rug creation but for also helping to teach us how to punch needle in general!
I don't know you, I didn't even watch the full video, but it feel so good to see a black boy with such creativity and artistic skills. You're so talented. I subscribe 👌🏾 (Sorry for my English I originally speak French🤷🏽♀️😅)
I’m two years late but I absolutely adore your kindness and generosity for sharing your own tips and tricks, best supplies to use and overall being so heartwarming to everyone in the whole creative community and as a small business owner I don’t see much people doing these kind things like you. I wasn’t even interested in needle tufting til I saw this! I really do hope your art goes big someday, I’m counting on you and when I saved up enough money I am so going to purchase something from you. I don’t usually do lengthy comments but you deserve it man, best wishes and luck! Im rooting for u!!
And this is why people should never complain about the price of art! I could NEVER have the patience nor skill to do anything like this. Looks wonderful!
This is such a good tutorial for needle punching, you basically made me understand something my middle school teacher tried and failed to teach me, and your voice is so calm and chill, I love it, and the design process is just lovely, I'm just in love with your style, instant subscribe
Glad to see your post...can’t wait to just vibe and enjoy your art
I started a clothing brand and it’s been taking up my time but I’m back on the grind with these video now
@@CurrieGOAT will you sell them on Amazon too? I can only shop on Amazon that's why
I only sell though my site atm, amazon takes to much commission

It's wayyy to cool to put it on the ground, I would hang it on the wall it's a masterpiece

Im sure that got to be quite the satisfaction to relax barefoot on this after all this hard work too.
I think the same thing about painted shoes 😂
Oh definitely! I was thinking it would be like beautiful on the wall.
Agree!!!

A projector might help too. Instead of printing the stencil and cutting out pieces, project the image onto the fabric and trace

I realise this is 2 years old haha but any idea why my options section is greyed out? I cant select anything inside it

I adore everything about this video, from the artistic aesthetic to the clear, concise instructions to his patient, calm voice.
I am thoroughly impressed with his skill and dedication to his art.
I watched this video last month and just wanted to let you know that you got me interested into punch needle and it's now one of my new favorite hobbies! I've made several small projects so far and I think I'll be tackling making a big wall hanging or rug next! Thanks for the content and I love your art!
That’s so sick 😁✌🏿
You are so thorough and well spoken this is the best content I've consumed in awhile. Thank you so much.
RUclips recommended me this and I have zero regrets. This is insanely helpful!
Wow, you did such an amazing job! I think you also just taught me what I've been doing wrong every time I try to do punch needle art lol. So thank you so much for not only sharing your brilliant creativity and techniques of rug creation but for also helping to teach us how to punch needle in general!
The sound when he punches through the fabric *Chochlea tingles*
I don't know you, I didn't even watch the full video, but it feel so good to see a black boy with such creativity and artistic skills. You're so talented. I subscribe 👌🏾
(Sorry for my English I originally speak French🤷🏽♀️😅)
Thanks for watching ❤️
I’m two years late but I absolutely adore your kindness and generosity for sharing your own tips and tricks, best supplies to use and overall being so heartwarming to everyone in the whole creative community and as a small business owner I don’t see much people doing these kind things like you. I wasn’t even interested in needle tufting til I saw this! I really do hope your art goes big someday, I’m counting on you and when I saved up enough money I am so going to purchase something from you. I don’t usually do lengthy comments but you deserve it man, best wishes and luck! Im rooting for u!!
And this is why people should never complain about the price of art! I could NEVER have the patience nor skill to do anything like this. Looks wonderful!
Thank you to the RUclips DIY algorithm goddess for recommending this😭😭
Holy crap I love this!! ♥️ I've been wanting to get a rug for my room for a while now, maybe I can try and make one following this tutorial lol
You should 😁✌🏿
Your whole channel is exactly what I’ve needed! You make this so approachable 💛 thank you so much for sharing your expertise !!
The awkward middle stage. That's when you take a deep breath and push through. Your work is wonderful.
This design is pure gold. Love the Japanese influence
!!
This is such a good tutorial for needle punching, you basically made me understand something my middle school teacher tried and failed to teach me, and your voice is so calm and chill, I love it, and the design process is just lovely, I'm just in love with your style, instant subscribe
I've never heard of punch rugs before. They remind me of latch hooks with a smaller pile though.
It turned out so freaking beautiful! The whip stitch is such a nice touch.
Best punch needle rug video I’ve seen, stunning work, quality finish 😍
this is unbelievable. the patience you must possess to do this........ I can only wish
"If you want it how you want it, you've gotta sacrifice for it."

Hey a Cerberus rug, that's pretty dope.
SO COOL ! Your explanations are so clear that I think I could actually do punch needle 🤔 I might try with a cushion cover!
You NEED to host workshops, you explain the process better than any art and design teacher I've ever had
when will you hit 1mil so I can brag about being here from the beginning 😳
