Well, I went to my local Home Depot and I found it! It was 26$ though! But it’s worth it! Made transferring really easy! I like it! You also get a lot for the money! I got my work cut out for me now!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! To think I only stumbled over this particular video because my new phone suggested I try out the new Google voice comm! This is fantastic! Stella
Wow! Just got back from my local Home Depot. That was quite the ordeal! I talked with at least 5 sales people who had no clue what I was asking for. Finally someone directed me to the kitchen designer area where they can look up products. Even still the guy had no clue but brought me to the far corner where the dry wall patching stuff is and amid the 4" tape, we found the big roll!! Just like in this video! Yay! Now going to try it out!
I hate red dot!! Bought a very cute pattern but transferring was a nightmare. I have bought a mini projector so I can just shoot an image at a wall and trace it. I can take pictures of buildings, animals, trees etc and trace them acurately! Now I'm spoiled, but when I do have a hand drawn pattern, this looks like the way to go! Thanks for sharing.
Hi Ladies. I can't thank you enough for this product to transfer rug hooking patterns to our linen. I am going to look for the Fiba Tape. Also the tutorials on You Tube from Ribbon Candy Hooking are excellent. I am going to try to dye some wool very soon. PS can you use an aluminon stock pot on a glass top stove? Hope to hear back from you again. Thank you so much.
Thank you! I'm excited for you to start your dyeing - what a world of fun is goign to open it! Yes you can do aluminum on a glass top. It'll work great. Keep me posted! Are you in our facebook group: Rug Hooking & Punch Needle Club? I would love to see pix when you get going! xx
Thanks for getting back to me on using an aluminon pan on the glass top stove.. Got the Fiba Tape today and now off to transfer a pattern. PS would you consider making a video on how to dye wool for a blue spruce pine tree? Off to watch more of your video's...I will also check on the Rug Hooking and Punch Needle Club.
Oh my gosh! Thank you for sharing this with us! I've been trying to figure out how to put the design from the front of my rug to the back so that I can both rug hook and rug punch with out all the time and trouble of either trying to use a light box or window or whatever. This stuff looks like the perfect solution! I'm going to buy a roll today and try it out!
I felt the same when I found its last week! A lot of people have known about this for years been I had not in this was a major breakthrough. I also was hating using light boxes and red. and mash and pins and things that move and shift. This really is amazing stuff in its dead cheap too so You know you can be using the same role for a long long time!
Fiba tape wasn't available in Edmonton Alberta. Amazon wanted $150 for a roll 36" x 75'. Crazy! Red dot was 6$ a yard at the Edmonton Rug Hooking Guild last time I purchased it.
Thank you for this! I’m just getting started with hooking and have come up with a design I’d like to do. This is brilliant! Quick question, how much fabric should I leave on the edges around the design? Is three inches all the way around enough?
Am I can definitely celsum for $3 a yard but I am pretty sure one of our other friends here on UA-cam is in the UK and found some so let me see if I can do a little check first..
This is great! Going to try to find it here in Canada. Red dot is hard to come by these days.(I like it) and this looks easier than anything else I have tried. Thanks for sharing. Keep up the good work.
I’m very new to this. I don’t understand the “front vs back” of things. So once the pumpkin pattern was transferred to the linen, was that the front (once finished) side or the back side? I thought you worked through the back side? If so, then the pattern would be on the front and you could not see it? Please help this newbie ❤
If you use a punch needle the side of the rug that will be displayed or be the right side up will be on the other side of the backing you are working on so the pattern should be on the backside of the backing material. When Rug Hooking you pull the yarn or wool from the back towards you so for rug hooking the pattern should be on the front side of the backing material. With Patterns that include writing or numbers, a punch needle pattern will have the letters and numbers mirrored and a rug hooking pattern will have the writing not mirrored.
I take a picture of design and send to my laptop and then tspe my linen to wall and project design from my laptop to draw on linen. Use my TMY projector (7500 lumens) from Amazon (about $70). Thus, no supplies to buy repeatedly.
Fiba with a long i, for fiberglass. Looks like the large size is made for some seriously messed up walls... and as someone said, does not look easy to find. esp. in Canada. good idea though, and a good idea for some to sell their complex patterns on the actual material! Value added.
It's a bargain but I hear it is hard to find in Canada. My Canadian friends get it in Amazon but then it's a huge quantity. I sell it if you get desperate. It's very light to ship
Where do you get big white paper from? I want bigger papers with pictures on it. Is there a possible way to print bigger picture like that? Forward to hooking latch my new pattern
Print stores can do it for you. Otherwise print and tape smaller pieces together and trace onto the transfer medium. Amazon has really big rolls of drawing and tracing paper by a company called Alvin
This is a thin sticker grid people have been using for rug hooking transfer for years, apparantly. The Department of Public Health say that there is NO evidence of adverse long term health effects from being exposed to even loose fiberglass particles a daily work situation. This is not loose. People who are allergic can get a rash or sore throat from inhaling loose particles. I am severely allergic to all kinds of fiberglass insulation, but this product gives me no trouble. I'm getting this information directly from the Department of Public Health website--- because, incidentally, the label does not mention fiberglass at all. I did, indeed, read the label and thouroughly research the product before posting this video.
Thank you for this video. Great method!!!

Thank you do much for sharing this. It will make a great difference especially floor rug runners.
I have used this for quite a few years. It is THE best thing ever when transferring a pattern.
This is the greatest idea! I have used this!
Thank you so much for this tip.
Love it
Thank you for sharing this amazing and useful hack! Yay! Super excited!!!! 👏🏼👏🏼

Just discovered this video, your channel and needle punching! So grateful! Excited to try this techique!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! To think I only stumbled over this particular video because my new phone suggested I try out the new Google voice comm! This is fantastic! Stella
Hi Stella! How funny... once is a while the phone does something good!!! Makes up for all the aggrevating things it does!
Unreal!!!

Glad you enjoyed it!
Ingenious idea 💡 thanks for your getting the word out

I am really happy that that was a happy ending but that does some like an outragous ordeal! Whoop whoop now you got it!
The Home Depot site will tell you what Aisle and Bay the product you want is located at your local store, and if it is in stock.

That's just great. Thank you, ladies ☺
Genius. Thanks for sharing
Isn't it! Only fair when everyone knows the same hacks. No one told me about this one and I'm glad its out there now!
Thank you so very much for introducing this product💖
Order it on line. My Home Depot only had the strips. I found it on line. There are two types. So make sure you get the Fiba Tape crack stop.
Wow! This is such a brilliant idea! I will be making use of this😊
Great idea! And long lasting.
Yes indeed!
amazing!!
Wow! Am going to order immediately!!! Thanks!!!
It's a game changer!

Couldn’t find it at Home Depot. Ordered from amazon
This stuff has been around for a number of years.
Yeah, I'm just seeing it used this way
oh what a great idea im in the uk and i did a search they only sell this in celotape size rolls i would love some
Am I can definitely celsum for $3 a yard but I am pretty sure one of our other friends here on UA-cam is in the UK and found some so let me see if I can do a little check first..

Good luck, I didn't like the red dot, this was much easier to work with. I have some in my shop if you can't find it there let us know

Is this equivalent to Tac & Trace?

We can’t get here in Canada in this size
Sahawnittasmith you love me to see you love 💕
I’m also thinking that this is a fiberglass mesh. So, think about this as you work.
Can't find this product at Home Depot in Canada! On Amazon its 56$ for the same size roll! Have to find someone to split it with!
Sahawntitasmith you love you too love you too love you too 💕
It's now $45 at Amazon
Oh mamma, è reperibile anche in Italia?

@@RibbonCandyHookingThank you
The directions say this is made with fiberglass. Isn’t that dangerous? Thank you
It would be nice if designers sold their patterns on this material instead of paper or downloads.
That's a great idea. Im going to do it! Thanks for the excellent brainwave!!
That's fiberglass tape. Does the company near me that makes it.
@dmaxi3816 it's called Fibatape in the U.S. I think it's called Crack Stop in other places
$28.00 2023
I sure wish people would READ LABELs!!!
