Great video, short and informative. Thank you.
Excellent tutorial. Thank you!! Just finished my tufting project.
Justo lo que buscaba, gracias
WOW! That's so helpful for my next project. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful! Let us know if you have any questions.
Best video I’ve seen on repairing tufted buttons.
Hey there, Tanya! Thank you so much for letting us know. Please feel free to reach out if there's anything else we can help with :)
Very helpful...thanks a million
glad we could help :)
Excelente técnica y muy fácil
Oh, this is perfect! I recently found a couch I'm in love with except the back of it isn't tufted, making it look a bit lumpy and plain. I tried to find websites that allow for customizing couches, but none of them allow for adding a very specific feature the one I love has (wood trim and metal accents at the bottom. It's the Ethan line of couches from Castlery). As there's more that I love about the couch than what I don't like, I think I'll still get it and just DIY the tufts with this guide. Thank you so much!
sounds Awesome! have fun with the project 😊
I'm working on a project and just an hour ago i was thinking exactly that I needed to learn how to tuft. And here i found you, 1st video UA-cam shows me! Synchronicity is amazing!!! Thank you so much!!!
Glad we could help!
Reale good
What sort of filling does it have to be for this sort of buttoning?
Disculpa donde puedo conseguir esos botones
Can you please tell me that can I insert needle in Rexine couch?
My couch pillow is very similar to this one, I'm constantly fluffing the pillows I hoped that adding buttons will help it maintain its shape better, what size buttons did you use? Great video
HI there, the buttons used here are 2.6cm(1 inch) in diameter
@@ComfortWorks great thanks, I'm going for it. Hope mine comes out as good as yours 😊
Awesome! let us know :)
@@ComfortWorks I absolutely LOVE IT. My cushions would lose shape all the time, I had to whip it in shape everyday, now the stuffing stays in place and it looks GOOD. Thank you for the brilliant idea 💯❤
can I take tuft buttons apart and reuse? and anything else i can use if i dont have a long needle, i am redoing a headboard , thanks
Hi Jay, you do need a needle that's long enough to run the thread through, if your needle is still short, you can try to flatten the cushion as much as you can to reduce its width while you run the needle through.
Hi and many thanks for such useful tips. Question: I have seen the same knot but with the thread turning round once more before inserting it into the loop. Is it worthwhile?
So happy to hear this was helpful! We'd suggest testing it out for yourself - do let us know if it works for you :)
@@ComfortWorks Thank you very much from Spain for your reply! Will do so!
You lost me at 00:58....
Is the needle going through the other side??
Also wasn't the thread already through the button? Just asking for clarity.
Yes, the needle is pushed through the cushion to come out from the other side, this is a two sides tufting styles, so there's a button on each side of the cushion ;)
Seems like the slipnot would fall right out after trimming the ends. Is there a way to secure it?
I found another video explaining this ua-cam.com/video/bXBObylr6LM/v-deo.html -- In short, tie a square not after you've tightened the slip knot into place. The above video skips this step.
Is there a way to do it ithout a button on the back? I don't have enough for my project
YES! you can do the tufting on one side only if you wish :)
@@ComfortWorks oh my gosh thank you so much! My mom wants me to make her a pillow for her chair and she wanted it to look like that but I didn't have enough buttons
I needed way to long that this technique is calling tufting lol
😄
How long should be the needle?
just long enough to fit through the cushion, our tufting kit comes with a 20cm long needle and it works perfectly fine in this scenario 😉
What your button size
Hi Ummi, each button is 2.6cm in diameter
How do I do this to a couch with attached cushions?
Hi Mae! Unfortunately, we are unable to make covers for couches with attached cushions because of the way they are built. We would suggest working with a local upholsterer to get some covers made for your couch. All the very best!
Are you not supposed to tie off the slip knot after tightening it to the correct position? I would imagine the button would slip loose if you don't.
Yes, that's right!
Thank you because i have a broken tuft
It's no problem at all! Glad we could help :)
You didn't show what happens in the back.
Hi Suzie, As seen in the video, all you need to do is to thread the twine into the button(0:38), once you insert the thread into the needle and run it through the cushion, the side shown at 0:50 is done, you can simply move to the other side and finish by inserting the second button and pulling the thread which will also tighten the button on the other side. hope this helps :)
This is an impossible knot to do with this video - you can’t even see their hand! 😂 I give up
This video doesn't even show how to tie a slip knot.
Hi Larry, here's a step-by-step tutorial we found on how to tie a slip knot for upholstery: ua-cam.com/video/z-qqT_w3KBY/v-deo.html
Hope this helps!
