Hand tufted textile sculpture inspired by a visit to Yorkshire Sculpture Park

Hand Tufted Rug from design inspiration and colour choice to show the tufting process and hand carving of the cut and loop pile pure wool rug.

Inspired by crop fields on my travels around Yorkshire and other parts of the UK, this rug or wall hanging was designed to emulate the structure and colour through sculpting the pure wool pile.

This rug was inspired by my favourite inspiration of cultivated fields. The different seasons bring a slightly new colouration to the cultivated fields especially around West Yorkshire.

Andrew Warburton created a workshop opportunity for the public to have a go at hand tufting and contribute to a community created hand tufted textile wall hanging.

Inspired by walks through the fields around West Yorkshire and the changing view of the field directly in front of Area Rugs workshop in Mirfield, this HAY BALE design rug or wall hanging evokes the movement of the ploughed lines of cultivation but using a palette of expressive, counterintuitive custom dyed pure wool colours.
