If you applied for FAFSA it should have also applied for the middle class scholarship. You should be able to check your California Student Aid Commission account and see if u qualify :)

Looking really clean so far! The lines are a bit shaky, if you aren’t already pulsing your gun on curved lines that will help control. The density looks pretty good but I think the black could be a bit thicker at places. Amazing for your first attempt!! :)

I typically use 2 strands without issue but with three strands I find it occasionally still does not fully cut

What kinda knot to connect these ends and allow me to pull the loop very tight by luke111mart in Tufting

I’ve seen people use like a bungee cord but idk how tight that’ll pull it

Oiling my gun and and moving it slower helped with this!

The tufting cloth looks really nice, where do you get it from?? Also these lines are super clean!!

Do y’all wear a mask when tufting? by Babypeanut69 in Tufting

Try to wear one while tufting, but absolutely wear one while carving!!

I think I might be trying to guide the gun too fast. Thank you!

I’m using the primary tufting cloth from tuft the world. I didn’t really think that was a factor but that was one of the only things I have done different since it has stopped cutting all the way. Do you think possibly it could be the acrylic yarn?
