Tufting, which is known as "touffetage" in French, is a delightful craft technique that involves inserting wool or cotton threads into a stretched canvas using a special tool, often called a "tufting gun." This method allows you to create amazing textured patterns, resulting in wonderful items like rugs, cushions, or wall decorations! Gaining popularity in recent years, especially thanks to social media, tufting charms everyone with how easy it is to learn and the absolutely fantastic results it produces.
