finally...i can share with all of you what i have been working on for the past few months ◕‿◕
i have been working on becoming an oxford certified punch needle instructor, and in this video, i take you through the process of designing and making my long-anticipated punch needle certification rug from scratch.
my 2 x 3 foot rug utilizes a wide range of techniques, including some advanced punch needle techniques like fine shading & sculpting. i spent hundreds of hours handcrafting this rug and i can't believe i somehow managed to condense all of it into a 36-and-a-half minute video ^-^
hope you enjoy this video! getting to share the heritage craft of punch needle & hooked rugs with all of you is pretty awesome!! remember to subscribe and leave a comment—i love reading and replying to everyone's comments ⋆౨ৎ˚⟡˖
