The best part of this series is that its nice seeing you not be an expert at something and truly learning a new craft. Its so delightful and fun.

[@DScritchy]

In the yarn crafting world, we call this playing “yarn chicken” and girl, you WON! 🤣💛

[@calliebeaird-campbell3093]

Hi, hello, long-time lurker, first-time commenter. I love this sooo much!! The resin crafts are amazing, but I am SO PSYCHED to see you working with yarn and fabric. They're some of the only creative mediums I have much experience with, so these past two episodes have just been calling to my little grandma soul. 😂 Please keep trying new things, I love seeing you explore other mediums!! Just remember to take your time and enjoy the process...don't sacrifice your mental health to take care of your audience. Without a healthy and happy Artsy, there wouldn't be a channel to enjoy! Best wishes for an amazing year and the most fruitful-est crafty ventures...you and your team are wonderful!!

[@carolschubel4448]

Omg thats so fluffin cute!!! Love the pumpkin...just make sure tho, if you used acrylic yarn, or any fiber not cotton, it doesn't melt the fibers...would hate for your adorable jack to melt :( I LOVED THIS VIDEO! Please do more tufting...I'm also currently obsessed!!

[@JennifersJemz]

OMG!! He's so CUTE!!! I can not believe this is your first one!! You are making me want to spend money on this tool. Ruh-roh, Rhaggy. LOL! Thanks so much for showing this. I've only ever made a real yarn rug with the latch hook method. This is something I never knew we could buy, though. Your creativity is truly inspiring. Thanks again, and Happy Creating!!!!

[@Shadingoftheheart]

Girl, this is phenomenal!! Your sparkle is back and Your excitement is contagious -- amazing!!

[@EC-R]

Tuffinriffic job! Your Ghostie turned out so good.

[@gracefulannie-grcflannie-]

You should be proud of your first rug. It's so cute and it looks like you did a great job.

[@jacquelinec6257]

That ghost rug is seriously adorable 😂 I can't get over it I really want to try tufting now!

[@tinacluff2793]

You're making me want to get into this now and make my own rugs.

[@JayeNicki]

The rug came out so amazing. When you see what you create come to life is such an awesome feeling. Congrats on it and can't wait to see your next creation.

[@thebutlerdiditagain]

I can’t handle the straight up adorableness! 😍

[@FearlessNimue]

Watching the tufting fill in from the front side is so satisfying!

[@CaptainCole5]

After tufting for about a year I'd hit a total creative block but you've totally re inspired me, love the ghost 👻🖤

[@kim99may]

So amazing and it turned out so cute. Of course you had to pick a curved shape to challenge yourself with learning everything all at once. I do the same thing. Lol 😝 so fun! So many artsy new things.

[@livelaughcraft9246]

omg the ghost is so cute xxx cant wait to see what other rugs you Make

[@creative_angst]

OMG DO A BAT SHAPED RUG NEXT

[@ashleysovilla2037]

This looks so fun and your ghosty is so cuuute! Please update us in the future about how the rug holds up, durability wise! ❤️

[@thehousewifelife.]

I giggled when the video jumped frame and I saw all the extra lines because that’s me. Hahaha. 💯

[@bewitchcrafting]

I love this video! It is so inspiring. Your rug is the cutest and I can’t believe you made it as a beginner to tufting. I predict ridiculously adorable Halloween shapes are going to be taking over your floor space. Your enthusiasm is infectious too. Thanks for sharing!

[@B0eep0]

I love watching your videos. Your journey in tufting is inspiring me to continue learning and practicing my art (as a beginner) ..its so refreshing to see someone learning and not afraid to show flaws..kinda tired of watching these "perfect" youtubers

[@ryanalexandra1297]

I loooooove the sound the tufter makes

[@missdaisy3172]

I love love love this rug. You should sell these. I couldn't keep my eyes off the TV as you made this. I was so excited to see the end result.

[@kristinewithak8265]

You should be proud! And what a glorious feeling to take something from mind to paper to fruition ❣️

[@kaleyal2001]

this is so unbelievably cute

[@saskia8567]

Dear Halloween that's cute! Love the ghostie and the pumpkin. Makes me wanna be a rug person, but I'm just not. And I'd end up with like more rug than floor in no time, this is just too cute!

[@amyd1975]

i love how excited you get. you have to make one for your cat now x

[@thefreckledfish]

I dunno maaaan I just have to compliment you on the end stem segments of your pumpkin piece. Like its little cute and dainty stylized leaves and I just loved it.

[@kendralee6608]

The shot of you starting the mouth from the other side was abso-friggin-lutely adorable! 🥰 LOVE the tufting videos! I want to try it so bad now!

[@suesmith9202]

I think you did absolutely fantastic

[@janinem3205]

you have your spark back! im so excited for you :)

[@playfulfaerie]

THIS WAS SO CUTE AND WHOLESOME

[@phyllisgast8357]

It is such a cool process! I have never seen a rug be made before! I have a suggestion for a future rug, what about a beach scene like you have done with resin but instead of resin use your tuffting gun! Beautiful job 👏 👏👏 💜

[@crazyhorse2513]

I just came upon your channel and i am SO happy. I love crafty stuff and you are adorable ( I am a great grandma) You are funny, witty and i think i will binge on your videos. I am now subscribed !!

[@debbieschoop-wilson3612]

Wow! I'm impressed. You did such a good job. He or she is so cute.

[@zanetwiesman9079]

ADORABLE!! Now I want to get a tafting gun and make some rugs. You rock girl. I have to watch the rest to see the updates on what to use.

[@lorenehughes]

I absolutely love this project for you!!! Such a cute rug!!

[@Brandywine6969]

You just started this and you are already pro at it. I love this.

[@tipsygypsy3613]

That is SO cool! 👻 Hang it from a gnarly tree branch, then hang it up on the wall! Your cat won't be able to do bad things to it and it will last forever. Also, don't forget to date and sign the back. You are doing a great job!

[@letsthinkaboutit7005]

You did awesome on this rug. Thank you so much for sharing your PPE and how strong the odors of the product that you are using. You always go that extra mile and it is greatly appreciated.

[@jessicahites871]

Wow!! So impressed with your improvement already!! Totally awesome!!

[@stacyanthony7148]

I love love love it! Too stinking cute to step on. Now you need a bat one to match the bats on the wall. So exciting. You are extremely talented. I am ready for the next one.

[@mandicoleman7433]

Awe wow.... he turned out amazing!! He's so effin cute 😍

[@WandasBlessedCreations]

Absolutely adorable!!! I love everything Halloween!! I love it!! Awesome job!! 👏Thank you so much for sharing!!❤️

[@lornalacey5839]

Heather!! How could you walk on your rug? I know it’s a rug, but I’m surprised you stood on him😁 even though it was in your socks, I thought you would display him on the wall cos it’s your 1st & he’s SO cute!! I thought you would have chosen dark blue for a nighttime background but this way he matches the jackalantern trivet. A set for your kitchen. Love him, but he needs a name. ❤️

[@meowrchl97]

So cute, I don't like orange but this is adorabubble!!!!!!

[@luli237]

you could try contact cement for adhering the backing, it still stinks a little bit but not after it dried. loved that cute ghost!!

[@kathytarman2302]

Oh my goodness this to so cool. I love this rug. You are so talented. Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent with us.

[@BaconNMegs]

My friend uses a projector to trace his images onto the fabric, worth investing in if you wanna keep doing it! I love this

[@tayloranglin1810]

Super cute rug!! I love that you are putting yourself first 💕 your courage is contagious

[@kaite6348]

It would be interesting to try what I've see some people do. They use the sheep shears and specifically shear parts shorter or longer than the rest to give slight texture differences. It would be cool to make the background, the eyes and mouth and the black under park shorter and let the stars and the white part of the ghost really stand out. Idk if that's possible with tiny details like in the eyes, but it's a cool idea in my mind lol This was very relaxing to watch by the way. Loved it.

[@odettehillier3387]

Oh wow that's so adorable 😍, just love it. Congrats on your first rug 👏

[@paolasalazar00]

It's beautiful!! I love it! Congratulations on your first ever rug 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I see a lot of them in the future 🥳

[@heathermcfadzean94]

Love how much you are shining, thank you for being so inspirational, I now also want to be a tufter 😯obsessed. There is a guy I found and he has some really great tips, his channel is flavour world. Keep shining your light ❤ xx

[@heinousshrew]

Fabritac by Beacon is my HG glue for textiles. I learned about it in college in millinery class. It has a strong smell but it dries quickly and then the smell is gone. Your ghost is fantastic!

[@kirstenramone9290]

Just found you’re channel, and I’m OBSESSED!!

[@Sulzie65]

He is adorable! Well done!

[@jessthefigment4222]

I’m OBSESSED!🧡👻✨

[@LisaOliverauthor]

I absolutely adore this rug - now I want a kit too lol. Keep being the wonderful you that you are :)

[@Momzettax3]

You are so talented!!! Thank you for sharing your creativity.

[@sftraub]

Super cute! I will not jump into another craft…I will not jump into another craft….

[@rachelnelson2903]

It's so cute! And it looks so fluffy 😍

[@OG_Beckie_Leigh]

I love it! As soon as I finished watching your 1st tufting video, I immediately had to order a tufting gun & supplies. I’m building my frame today, and I can’t wait to start tufting! Obviously, my first design will be a roller skate. LOL ✌🏼💜🛼

[@starladawne4719]

Those camera angle shots from the other side of the rug while being tufted though!

[@Mb-de5lo]

I can’t even put into words how excited I am to watch you tuft! I’ve always been interested in watching tufting videos but I never seem to be able to find someone that I enjoy watching do it. It’s always really short TikTok’s and like those are cool but I want to see the full process. So this is great because I just love the way you are. Can’t wait to see how ghosty comes out. 👻

[@romac5309]

LOVE it!!! This is really incredible. DO ANOTHER ONE SOON!!!

[@ilsabailey8195]

Kinda of reminds me of latch hooking but with a motor. Love it

[@MissElite07]

Awesome job!!!! I wanna try one too!!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 more tufting videos !!!

[@DiscoKittie]

That is seriously the cutest rug! :) I can't wait to see more. How does it feel under your feet?

[@heathermcfadzean94]

OMG 😲 My nephew just got me a tufting gun for my birthday yesterday, the excitement is real. I'm on this journey with you, never done anything like this before 😁 I love doing resin, crochet, DIY etc. Hope to try my first one in the next few days, time etc Thank you x

[@bonniethomas6421]

You did a great job! It looks terrific.

[@spiritsoulbody352]

[@alynngreen9130]

[@ashleywest5599]

[@knzicarter7851]

[@cherylburkitt9722]

[@jimmerseiber]

[@miswelch1]

I love it you did such an amazing job wow!!!! I am getting ready to start my own channel & I just want to tell you that you inspire me!! 👻👻👽👾

[@andino1218]

Awesome job!

[@KatieSmith8]

Oh my god I love it so much! I'm super jealous and am going to have to learn how to tuft. Seriously great job. Please keep making all kinds of art, you make my week. Also you can't have nice things with cats 🤣

[@danielletdg8423]

This turned out soooo cute! Amd I love that you did more Halloween things for your first tufting makes. You're a girl after my own heart ❤

[@penelopebakken4480]

Love, love, love it!!!!!!! Looks thick and plush!!! You're great!!!! I need a 9' x12' for my living room!!! 🤗

[@gazebo18]

I love both of hem! Great job!

[@angcooperrider9360]

It looks so soft I kinda want one now

[@skgbakery5050]

I love watching your creativity blossom girl! I actually asked for a set of rug punches for xmas and have been teaching myself as well. I have 2 notes for ya: the Roberts carpet glue stays tacky for a while, which allows you to spread glue and use said glue to help adhere the monks cloth to the glue (edges) and then using that same glue, you can use it to help fuse your carpet backing. Most folks who create the waterfall edges as you did have to use hot glue around the seam edge so don't feel discouraged with your ghost! I'd love ideas for backings as right now I went the super economical way of using foam bath mats from the dollar store and cutting them to fit. If we were friends off of this platform I could send you pics to show you what I've used so far. I've made 4 rugs since xmas and I'm also addicted (I feel like a tufting gun is my next evolution). Keep up the great work!

[@JS-ik7rn]

This is SO COOL 😎 I may have to give this a try one day. On another note, I’d love for you to do a tutorial on that green eyeshadow!!!

[@WYIN98]

Omg i love your glasses !!!

[@stephaniesanderson9638]

Sooooo cute, well done. I wish I had your patience ❤️

[@candacedowney813]

So Cute, makes me want to learn tufting, I think I will just watch you. Thanks for sharing

[@charbonelleweese4042]

Love it! Such a cute design!

[@anabeatrizpaiva4038]

Girl, try to make the free hand design in pencil, a dark one (I guess a B6 can help) and then go over de design with a marker so you can see better. Might help while you don't have the projection thing. =)

[@wendylovesjesus]

You did an amazing job!! 🤩🤩

[@tweedyb569]

Ive used headliner adhesive spray for everything ever since I learned about it when changing the headliner on my car.

[@JeromeLivingLife]

AM IN LOVE IN KZbin

[@nature2964]

It turned out great!

[@MariesStuff]

So gorgeous I cant wait to see what you make next. 😀

[@tonibroaddus]

Now I want to try that looks so cool

[@wisehealingsbydesign]

Great job on your cool rug.

[@KBish]

He is awesome! You should be very proud of yourself! I’m proud of you! You do need to sign your artwork (even if it’s with a Sharpie on the back, put the date on it)
