Really nice! Did you tuft as one big piece and fold it up or separate triangles?

u/Upstairs-Software424 2d ago

Yes one big piece!

Talk about transfer stress! Getting all those triangles projected evenly/accurately must have been difficult.

It may or may not have come out a little wonky in the place where all the corners had to be sewn together 😅

I also made it as a gift! (for my DM) I looked for a paper D20 template, flipped the image. Traced it on the cloth and started tufting.

^ link to my insta reel that shows a few of the steps. 

I also took inspiration from Jazza's video on the tufted globe: https://youtu.be/7rlJlEXc8Go?is=IoFfZxTKfhuO2sEs

This is genuinely astounding. I'm not a tufter. I'm just here to appreciate the art and effort. A 3D piece?? 10/10. Keep being creative! It's art.

This is so creative. I am so impressed. You did a really good job!!!

Did you hold it together with your normal carpet glue? Any tacks or any hardware used to keep it together or give it structure?
