Rug Tufting- taking punch needle to another level.

Meg Little takes punch needle to a new level. This American fibre artist uses an electric tufting machine to fast forward punch needle hooking. She draws her design on the back of her canvas and starts tufting. That easy.
See her interesting You-tube video HERE

Here in Australia, fibre artist Bec Anderson, from Queensland makes rugs with a tufting machine as well. 
You will find her website HERE
and HERE you will find her video on the making of The Wishing Chair, a delightful pictorial on the process she used to make it.
