We need a larger scale rug next. I’m in love w the process

[@michellekhadorkovskiy8694]

He should do the famous uo/antro tiger tuff rug

[@kellyvasseur3093]

Yes bigbig please!!

[@Meimei.333]

Definitely!

[@janwood5585]

I would love to see you make an intricate patterned rug or even a wall hanging.

[@ABCD-gb8mt]

or pillows.

[@Robinodro]

Definitely!!!

[@randis7785]

Wall decor, yessss!!!!

[@shelbacus6043]

I’d love to see a larger scale project - maybe even a DIY version of a very expensive/high end rug

[@lonefox]

yes! great idea :)

[@veronicawaters-carmichael1753]

DREW, YOUR SIMPLY THE BEST! I WANT TO SEE YOU DO A FOX RUG. THE SIZE THAT WILL FIT AT YOUR BEDSIDE! OR YOUR LONE FOX LOGO! NOW LET'S GO!

[@CurrieGOAT]

I fell out when you screamed doing the first line 😂 both of them look amazing and it was your first try 👏🏿

[@sushahebbar3208]

Your work is amazing too

[@Diva380]

Literally did the same when he yelled "It looks like a frickin' rug!" 😆 Really glad you did that tufting video, btw. I like that you do more complicated designs.

The rug king is heeereeee

[@stephanie1860]

I hollered 😆.

[@LisaIsabelle]

To think my dad was doing this type of rugs BY HAND one strand at a time in the early 80's.

[@lynnconroy8]

I did too! Rug hooking with a closable hook thingy.

[@debbiez3984]

I did too...it was called latch hook rugs or just plain hooked rugs.

[@dbartz5510]

I made a bunch of them by hand, back in the day. Still have my tools. It was so relaxing and mostly used a burlap material for the backing.

[@geegeel7907]

😮 I bet those handmade rugs looked amazing!

[@terrysmith4400]

I remember my mom doing it in the 70's with a punch thru one at a time. When she was out I would sneak and do some, can't remember if the rug ever got finished it was like 4ft by 3ft.

[@designedtothenines]

Seriously… How fun is this! I’m half tempted to give it a whirl. But great job.

[@lauriehunecke9509]

I Love WATCHING you Too!!!❤

[@angelicar4650]

I would love to see you give it a go 💕

[@monicabookdevour5488]

Do it!

[@jessicahites871]

You definitely need a Designed to the Nines rug in your craft room!!😁

[@sandraspiga5936]

Dove si compra la pistola x tappeti? Scrivo dall'Italia. Voglio imparare a fare tappeti. Dove posso trovare dei tuoi video? Oggi è il primo video che vedo tuo e già ti adoro anche se parli troppo veloce e i sottotitoli anche sono veloci

[@Firefoxy11]

I love the way you talk about your sponsors. It never sounds like you’re just reading off something it sounds like you really actually love the product

[@carolynkeierleber2245]

YES! My wishes: More rug tufting videos. Yes, buy shears or shaving tool. List all supplies in comments. Get twill tape! This would be awesome. Thank you for the video. I loved it.

[@farmers-daughter2000]

You did a great job. I did it 50 years ago. So I have forgotten. I can tell you that I didn’t know they made the stuff for the back. For your first time you created some great results. I am going to enjoy watch you grow. The only failure is in not trying, some one famous said that but I don’t remember. I made this bunny other day. It didn’t turnout how I would have liked I bought stuff to remake them for my kids

[@ellaroes7296]

**does one line** OMG IT LOOKS LIKE A RUG, IT LOOKS LIKE A FREAKING RUG

[@MoDro281]

I’m pretty sure if I got my paws on one of these, everyone and their momma would be getting the same thing for Christmas.. and YOU get a throw pillow! And YOU get a throw pillow!

[@leamarye923]

Yes and every single Christmas 🤣🤣

[@noelleista]

I was just on Etsy looking at tufted rugs when I thought to myself I could diy them instead! and now you post this 0.o❤️

[@zoeemiko8149]

I made a 5'x7' latch hook rug a few years ago. It took me over a year to finish the darn thing & it's not like I would let it sit for months .. or even weeks without working on it. It became my TV companion so at least 2 hours a night. Now I'm watching you make gorgeous rugs in just a few hours? Ones that look every bit as nice as my latch hook rug? After watching you I realize I need tufting gun! Need need need. I have visions of gorgeous rugs swimming in my head! Thank you so much for this video!

[@gibbylivens]

LOVE this! I was just saying yesterday how I need a new hobby, and this looks SO fun! I would love to see a larger area rug with this technique to see what materials are needed, the type of frame used, etc. It would be so cool to be able to make my own rugs for my space. Thank you for sharing!!!

[@shoalkasper]

Missed a beautiful opportunity to say "tuftorial"

[@CosyQuarter]

Officially my new favourite word 😂

[@karolinak1857]

When I saw the clouds, right after Drew did the white parts, I thought it would look really epic as a wall art. Except that you would need to do it the other way around- "poke" it from the back of a frame and I guess living it on a frame afterwards. I really love the look of just the fluffy clouds on a simple canvas material, without filling the sky (space between the clouds). It would totally hit the vibes of neutral colors and texture elements.

[@Kath-Erina]

Yes I thought the same to leave just the clouds and hang it as a pice of art

[@BillieWagtail]

I am so excited to watch this video. I’m inspired and excited by all the rug art that is blowing up on tiktok and of course like any crafter I’m super keen to try. This was ✨charming✨ and realistic in that comforting “we’re all human” way you have of presenting techniques where I feel like we’re learning something new together. Thank you Drew 🥰 I’m now even MORE inspired to try

[@dorrellharrison109]

OMG! You are a GENIUS! Removing the canvas from the frame is Genius...I made one and it took me 3 days to get it right. I wish I had this brilliant idea to buy a canvas and take the cloth off! Wow!! Thank you also it’s cheaper than making one. The entire video is Great so informative. Again...thank you!😘🙂

[@colleengriffin4593]

Now you just need to make the matching bacon and the toast! You got me feeling like this is missing in my life! a breakfast rug set!

[@peachyclean8281]

Maybe even a bottle of Orange Juice!

[@leeleescraps]

Great idea! Bacon yes 👍🏼

[@teresah4972]

😂🤣😂

[@colleengriffin4593]

Yeas the breakfast collection, stack of pancakes and syrup!

[@biancabrooks280]

Yes!! A full set of breakfast rugs!!

[@-ashleydawn5802]

You should definitely do another rug tutorial sometime! This was so cool! I want to make a rug now 😂

[@randis7785]

People from 300 years ago would hate us for being able to make a rug in an hour, when they needed years of experience and weeks of work for 1 rug. This was sooooo beyond enjoyable to watch!!!!!!

[@amethyst1826]

You should watch a making of a Persian rug. There are some videos on YT. Have a look.

[@michelele859]

I am CONSTANTLY impressed by you. You have inspired my new life motto, “with the right tools, I can do anything!”

[@helenablignaut662]

Well done, Drew. I wondered if one could use these rugs to cover the seat of a chair or a stool for example.

[@drivitt]

Or as a pillow case!

[@relaxingsounds3032]

OMG!!!! drew....you never disappoint am telling you...i love how you take the risk in purchasing the turf gun...i love the two designs you did...one LOVE.

[@darlouthia5153]

Yes !!! Do more tufting! These are amazing. I’d love to see a bigger, more intricate one. 😻

[@crochet18burple]

I actually have a vintage rug tufting gun, thinking now I might give it a try. Very pretty rugs you made.

[@shaleabrown]

I've have been looking at rug tufting for months, closer to a year, and your video gave me the confidence to pull the trigger. Just bought everything I needed and I'm going to make my frame! *fingers crossed*

[@GalicheGal]

Brilliant video Drew. Please go further with this and make a rug suitable for your space. I've been thinking about this for the last few days and after watching some YT shorts. In just this video, I've learnt so much. Thanks for de-mystifying this craft. Many thanks Shel from Ireland

[@Jude-to7lw]

You should’ve put rug gripper padding on the back, instead of canvas. Then it would’ve been good to go on the floor with no slipping. Nice job by the way.

[@Intoxicanna]

Great suggestion..THANK YOU🥰

[@laurak0797]

I'm so into punch needling but THIS is next level. Now I really want a rug gun!! Would love to see more videos like that, loooove it 😻

[@rosebuhr]

Drew, this is incredible! As usual, well done on completing the project so professionally. Yours is my most favourite diy/decor channel. Everything you make is actually something I would want in my home.

[@shaishannahbennett8055]

When you said " I don't know if you guys want to see me making an actual rug, like something larger?" I shouted "YES!" so loud at the screen I woke my cat Lol! I'm so impressed with your courage to try this, well done indeed Drew. Those rugs are not my style but they are lovely, would be so perfect when you do a childs room makeover next. :-)

[@avigailsumaylo6253]

I sure would love to see you diy a larger scale rug. Maybe some abstract shapes and colors you like the most!! Great job on your first rugs!! Way cute :)

[@urna924]

Love the rugs but also loved the small moments showing you living in your space! Such chill calm vibes 👌🏼

[@chalybion]

This was so cool! So satisfying to watch the rug coming to life!

[@ColleenWeller]

These look amazing! I would LOVE to see an area rug. I've never thought of creating a rug myself but you've made it seem completely doable and not intimidating at all. Absolutely love that you're taking on things you've never done before. Keep it coming!

[@lonefox]

So glad you enjoyed the video!! More similar videos to come :)

[@fangirl_alice]

I'm so glad you mentioned the yarn cause I've watched a few other rug videos & no one mentions what kind of yarn was used or how much is needed.

[@soulence2845]

Eggcellent job, Drew. I'm on Cloud 9. :)

[@krislozano0703]

When you suggested getting a canvas at the craft store I immediately thought, “Just get an old canvas at the thrift store!” Especially since you’re taking off the canvas and just using the frame. 😊

[@joanfriant1563]

You are such a brave soul, love to watch you make something on a larger scale for yourself!💜

[@vzeimen]

Oh man! This is so cool. I've always wondered how artisans do hand made, designer rugs. This is crazy good! I wonder if the front side lengths would have been a little more even if you hadn't stopped and started in bursts?

[@RadamesVlogs]

They came out wonderful! Boy.. I wouldn’t have the patience that you had when doing those rugs, but hey.. perhaps u should release your line of rugs :)

[@ubetchaslots]

Yup I'll def watch another one of these

I loved this video so much! The process was very cool to watch. Especially seeing both sides of the rug as you made it. I would love to see more rug making videos!!!

[@kristineebalo5307]

Why not do a tufted tapestry for the wall in your living room or bedroom with a design that would be accent/statement piece.

[@cecilianava8408]

I HAVE to do this. Lone Fox, thank you. I am so happy as I watch this and am excited for you and your rug!

Thanks for the video!! You can actually build your own frame, they have the wooden pieces at Michael’s. Sooo much cheaper than buying a canvas! And customizable! Can’t wait to try this out! Xx

[@lir9875]

Sorry Girls have also made a cool tiger rug using a hand tool, in case you want to check it out. I had no idea that there was a faster tool for doing this, which makes it a lot less daunting. Thanks Drew, 💜
