Tuffet recap

3/28/2015

I finally made it home from the tuffet workshop in North Carolina. It was such fun and I learned so much that I felt like tuffets were falling out of my ears. But after a good night's sleep in my own bed, I'm ready to roll! Here are some highlights from the workshop!

First up: my array of strips:

I used a set of 2 1/2 inch strips, though if you are making them from your stash, you can get away with smaller strips. However, the convenience of using a ready-made strip roll can't be beat!

However, add it to this (which we made on day two):

and then we have.... almost a tuffet! Well, almost. At this point, I'd call it a pouf, but it needs to have that cute dimple to really be a tuffet. I don't have photos of me working on mine (not enough hands to hold a camera!) but I do have some of fellow tuffet affiliates.

And here is the adorable Marti showing the pneumatic staple gun who's boss.

A few finishing steps later, add some feet and voila, we have tuffets!

Lots of tuffets!
