Tufting Guidelines
You don’t need a finished design to book. Reserve your spot first and send your design when it’s ready. We recommend sending it 48 hours before your session so we can prepare. If you book last minute, you can send it any time before the workshop starts.
Keep it bold and simple
Choose one clear silhouette, thick outlines and room between details. Swap tiny lettering, fine lines or realistic features for a few larger shapes.
Keep colours simple
Start with two or three solid colours. Use contrast between neighbouring shapes and swap gradients or shadows for flat blocks of colour.
Keep it flat and front-facing
Send a straight-on drawing that shows the whole design. If you start with a photo, trace the main shapes and leave out perspective, shadows and texture.
Create your rug design
Start with a photo, sketch or logo. Rug Designer turns it into a simplified rug preview using Cheeky Studio’s 115 recycled yarn colours and gives you a mirrored guide for tufting.
Before submitting your design, check that the outlines are clear and neighbouring colours are easy to tell apart. Not sure what to upload? Try a simple sketch of your idea first.
