Located in a lively artful community, this spot invites visitors to step into the world of fiber arts through intimate, hands-on private sessions. Whether you're a crafty beginner or an experienced fiber artist, the workshop provides guided instruction on tufting techniques that turn simple loops of yarn into detailed, plush rugs and wall hangings. What makes Hawthorn notable is its focus on craftsmanship and personal expression—each piece crafted here bears a handcrafted authenticity that’s hard to find in mass-produced home decor.

The workshop space is equipped with all necessary tools, including custom tufting guns, frames, and a curated selection of colorful yarns.
