Tuft Itties

It’s been a sec. Aside from vending, I’ve been working on this intense project where I found out I can tuft a 4’x 6’ panel a day if I push myself. It’s for an interactive, fully tufted room. There will be buttons where you can change the room color and reveal a couple of images.Effect in comments.

I think I’m having stress dreams 😅. One was that I was looking at a volcano and then interrupted and I could feel sparks of lava hit my skin. The other was I jumped over the side of a hot air balloon like I was hopping a fence. I had no parachute 🙃

Thank you guys for helping raise $89.10 for The Breast Cancer Research Foundation! This is the total for January to March which is more than last year's January to March donation!

Cassie from Crass Concepts and I taught our first tufting class yesterday. We even had a duo from Cincinnati take our class. We’re having another one March 30th from noon-4 at Blockfort again! Sign up here if you’re looking for a class in Columbus, OH www.tuftitties.store/product/intr...

Prepping for our first Intro to Tufting class #tufting #tuftingprep

Finally got the outside of my studio wall done and some other things situated. My plan is to have more storage available in the back behind the tufting frame so I have more vertical space. #blockfortstudios #smallbusiness #artstudio #tufter

Dropped off this commission today! This is one of my favorite designs to do. I don’t make the same color combinations twice. Roughly 21”x30”, acrylic yarn, mounted on felt covered 1/4” plywood. #tufting #artisticnude #shibari #tuftedwallart #tuftitties

For these #tufttimes

I just made these “Emergency Rainbow Portals” for a submission to a Rainbow themed show. There’s multiple hanging hardware on the back so you can hang them in several orientations. I’m pretty happy with how they turned out! #rainbow #tufting #fiberartist #tuftitties #portals #findthehappy

Oh hay, did you know Tuft Itties is at 2 brick and mortars in 2 different states?
As always, each piece (even the coasters and hand printed totes) are one of a kind so each location will have different inventory.

I know many makers in Columbus that rely on Joann’s for A LOT of their supplies. I love Big Twist yarn because of vibrant color options that also include UV reactive ones. If you have a sec, it would be great if you could sign this petiton. #savecolumbusJoanns www.change.org/p/keep-joann...

Finally had a chance to swing by @outerspacewaysapparel inside of the
@rustbeltmarket.
This was my first time seeing them in this environment. Soooo many cute things! It's definitely the place for unique gifts if you're in Ferndale, MI. #tuft__itties #fiberartist #outerspacewaysapparel #quirkygifts

Time to hunker down and produce as much as I can for the next few months!

Making kitties!

Lol, real talk 😆

YES! @dejitaru.bsky.social and I were talking about how it was the best surprise!

How it started to how it’s going.
I love that I didn’t even have a tablecloth to cover the cardboard boxes at the earlier events 😅. A lot was learned last year and there’s still a lot more to learn this year!

A throwback to a custom Mini Itty piece I did in December. It was fun to figure out the best way to incorporate piercings. I’m really happy with how it turned out!

some fun vintage toys (not haunted)

I also love making these tentacle pieces that can be used as jewelry holders. I model them using Nomad & then print with PLA on my Bambu printer. I seal everything with resin. The red & blue ones have real sprinkles!

Thank you so much! Also your stuff is AMAZING! I just got a Daddy Long Legs and I’m definitely inspired by your pieces!

Here’s some non-boob related wall pieces I make. All pieces are mounted on felt covered 1/4” ply, complete with sawtooth hanging hardware!

If you like crafts AND power tools, or if you just have creative ADHD, this could be the thing for you. @crass.concepts and I will be announcing classes in the next month or two so keep your eyes peeled 👀.

In addition to ring dishes and new bags, I’ll also have some Valentines Day mug rugs this Saturday at Bazaar Valentine!

This makes the radar face make so much more sense…
