We love to post about what we make here at NeedlePaint, and love even more when our projects get to their recipeients and they tell us about it!
Here is some of the recent feedback we’ve recieved: (New belt photos are below)
“So the secret is finally out! I was able to give my boyfriend his belt for Christmas and he loved it! He keeps referring to it as his “prized possession”! He also wants to know when I’m making him another one! … I think it turned out pretty good for my first needlepoint project! Thanks again for all your help!” Halie 2015-01-13
“I ordered two NeedlePaint belts for my sons this Christmas. They are in a word: AWESOME!”. Quality construction, and incredible attention to detail. They arrived right on time as promised. This is a gift they will enjoy for years and years! I highly recommend NeedlePaint. You won’t be disappointed. Thanks and happy holidays to everyone at NeedlePaint. Paul B.

I have just stumbled onto you via a Pin sidebar. I do many belts, many geometric designs which I simply count out; plaids, gingham and checkerboards. I am always looking for inspiration and new finishers. Could you post a close up picture of a buckle and keeper on a finished belt? This is where I see a difference in the finishers I use. How much stitching do you recommend? I have seen variance between 4-5 ” off measurement from tip of the buckle to the middle hole. Do you require a finishing stitch? Lastly what do you charge to finish? Can’t wait to hear from you. Mary
Hi Mary,
Our designs are 8 inches smaller than the belt size.
The background is 5 inches smaller than the belt size, and 24 stitches high so you can do a rolled edge.
We know a number of leather finishers and would be happy to email you their information. To email us, Click Here
Here is a link how to measure a belt (some leather finishers will measure to the end of the brass, so always check with them before sending anything to them) How to measure a needlepoint belt
