Here’s a new design that’s debuting at RB Studio & Gallery.
I wanted to create a different frog design that was a little simpler and more friendly than my original froggy. I’m very pleased with how this one turned out! You can see by the two different frogs how much the finished rug can vary even using the same design, so they’re all just a little bit special.
Here’s another rug I made for RB Studio and Gallery‘s opening: A pink rainbow rug of my cat, Scuzzy! This was actually the first rainbow rug design I created when I was first learning tufting, and this is my first time making one for sale. I’ve tweaked a few bits to make the design more aesthetically pleasing, though it looks a little less like my precious Scuzzy cat.

Now that I’ve officially announced I’ll be selling with RB Studio & Gallery, I can finally show you all what I’ve been making for them this past month!
First off is this tiger rug. This was my second time making this design, and it’s surprisingly fun and quick to do. Usually little details slow me down, but this one just flew by.
I thought it would be fun to palette swap my rainbow orange fox for a rainbow silver fox, and this little blue friend was born. It was very difficult matching the purple for this one, but I think it turned out pretty well in the end.
Here’s one of my latest rugs. I wanted to try my orange tabby colour scheme with higher contrast, and a tiger seemed like the perfect subject! I also experimented with shaping the outlines to make them cleaner, and that’s definitely something I’d like to keep practicing.
Here are some mini rugs I worked on over January. They’re about 14″ on the longest side and are designed as little wall hangings. It was very tricky to adapt tufting to this smaller size. I’d definitely like to figure out adding some line work to his small size.
Here’s my latest rug, another of my pup, Nonoha. That’s the full set of my cats and dogs complete for my personal collection. I’m looking forward to working on some new designs and trying some smaller rugs for wall decor.
Sorry for the radio silence lately. I’ve been hecking busy! I’ve just added a new page to the site for rugs. Check it out here to see what I’ve been making for the past month: RUGS
All of the rugs listed have found homes except the cat in this blog post. That one is going up for charity auction at Isaac’s Way here in Fredericton to help pay for art lessons for underprivileged kids!
Here’s a rug of my kitty, Sparc. I designed this as a companion piece to my Scuzzy rug; I used the same colours but flipped the gradient. I think Sparc’s white spots turned out really striking.
Here’s a rug of my in-laws’ kitty, Ace. The colours look a bit darker and richer in person, but hopefully you can see the details well enough in this photo. It was really fun designing a rug in my cartoony style; trying to fit certain dimensions was an interesting challenge.
I’m now accepting commissions for custom rugs! If you’re interested, please check out these listings for pricing and info:
