Introduction

All compositions are handwoven by hand in Finland, Northern Europe, on a traditional local loom using methods inherited from previous generations. Next, I will walk you through the rug weaving process from the planning stage to the finished artwork.

Warping

A new artwork begins with setting the warp to the chosen width and length. This usually takes a day. Whether I weave to order or from pure inspiration, the color palette is already in my mind.

Materials

Next, I source, wash, iron, cut, and organize suitable weft fabrics. The studio also houses a collection of beautiful fabrics, organized by color. Once the materials and combinations fall into place, I am ready and eager to begin weaving.

Weaving

When I finally sit down at the loom and begin to weave, the feeling is calm and focused. What I have imagined for days begins to appear in the fabric. Layer by layer, I choose which color and shade comes next. The process is slow and satisfying. To me, it is a play of colors that I can step into.

Off the loom

After days of weaving, curiosity grows: what will the finished piece look like? When I roll the fabric off and throw it onto the floor for the whole family to see, I feel I have given my all. Every project is a source of joy. Inspiration, passion, and care go into the work, and I believe some of that warmth travels with the finished piece to you.

Questions about the process

How long does it take to weave a single piece?

Weaving each piece takes several days depending on size and complexity. The entire process from warping to finishing usually takes weeks, not days.

Are all materials upcycled?

Yes. All pieces use cotton and upcycled fabrics sourced and prepared in the studio. Every fabric strip is washed, ironed, and cut by hand.

Can I request a custom size?

Yes. Any design can serve as a reference for custom sizes following the same visual language. Production times depend on the chosen width and length.

Is every piece truly unique?

Yes. Upcycled materials mean that no two pieces are identical. Commissioned pieces also follow the visual language without exact copying.

Where are the pieces woven?

All compositions are handwoven in Finland by artist-weaver Tuuli using traditional local looms and methods passed down through generations.
