$1,012.80 All Things EFFY was established in 2018 in New Zealand by founder Carolyn — a Canadian-born maker with a background in Engineering Physics, Mechatronics Engineering, and a Master’s degree in Physics. What began as a small punch needle supply shop quickly grew as she discovered rug tufting: a craft that blends creativity with machinery, precision, and hands-on problem-solving.
In 2020, EFFY expanded into rug tufting supplies after seeing how challenging it was for makers to access reliable tools and clear, honest information. As tufting grew globally, the brand naturally shifted toward specialising entirely in rug tufting. The New Zealand store continues to offer a limited range of punch needle supplies, but rug tufting remains the core focus of EFFY.
Following the opening of our New Zealand and Canadian shops, Australia became EFFY’s third location in 2024. The Australian store was created to offer fast, local access to quality tufting supplies and to support the rapidly growing tufting community across Australia. With domestic fulfilment from within Australia, makers can enjoy faster shipping and no international import fees.
All Things EFFY is founder-led, with all product decisions shaped by real tufting experience and technical insight. Carolyn’s engineering and physics background provides a unique ability to evaluate tufting machines, yarns, fabrics, and tools based on performance, safety, and long-term reliability.
