FIVE STAR REVIEW I signed up to this workshop because I wanted to see what tufting was all about. Vivi was great. She communicated with me beforehand so that she had the design I wanted to do. She drew it on the canvas for me which was great. I was hesitant about colours, but she has a huge choice and so I found my heartâs desire. She took me through how to use the tool safely and then gave me some lines to follow so that I would understand how it worked. Then she patiently talked me through the process as I was working on it. She was so helpful and she explained things very well. I could really imagine getting together with a group of friends and having a tufting party. Thank you Vivi. You are great.
