You may have seen the Jolly Roger on Needlepoint Belts before, buy you have not seen a design like this!
We’ve created a personalized needlepoint template featuring the Jolly Roger and your last name in Boister Black letters.
Being able to personalize your own needlepoint canvases really makes this design pop and would be a great gift.

We are making custom needlepoint pillows!
These two pillows were just finished and look great!
You can look at our website for some of our modern needlepoint designs, personalized needlepoint designs, or if you’d prefer us to make a custom pillow with your own design, we’d love to do that.
Both pillows in this photo are stitched using wool, and are on 12 mesh canvas. Prices for ring bearer pillows start at $100 and for 14 x 14 inch pillows start around $160. We go by the number of stitches and size.
For photo pillows, the maximum number of colors is 14, but we’re happy to help design the pillow for you, just email us the photo along with your ideas, and we’ll put together a preview for you. (Photo pillows are more expensive than the normal, by typically $40-$60 depending on the design)
Of course, if you’d prefer to stitch your own needlepoint canvas, we’d be happy to help with the needlepoint design, and also offer a pillow finishing service.
Custom Needlepoint Pillows
I think all of our readers will appreciate how well this custom needlepoint canvas turned out this week!
Our customer requested a greek key border to go around their dog, and to remove the background so they could needlepoint the dog in the photo.
If you have a photo to needlepoint, we can help! Just email us the photo and your ideas, and we’ll make a digital preview for you.

We had a fun project last week that the customer has agreed to share with everybody!
This needlepoint belt is a collection of places, events and symbols. It is being made as a graduation gift.
I’m calling it a Life Treasures belt. We started with about 20 ideas, and then they decided to get the grad’s opinion to make sure they like all the elements.
A few rounds back and forth and we had an amazing personalized needlepoint belt canvas! I’m sure this will be worn with pride…
We’re always looking for more cute dogs to needlepoint!

We’ve been quite busy designing personalized needlepoint belts the last few weeks!
I had to share this one, as it really came out well.
The flag and eagle with anchor only repeat once, but I would have had to cut them in half to make the preview accurate, so I left them on both sides so you could see them!
Some of the elements came from our Airplane Needlepoint Belt but new additions were the Eagle with Anchor, the Navy Logo, the Wings, Navy Chapel, and Navy Insignia.
If you have any custom needlepoint ideas, let us know!

The Actual Personalized Needlepoint Canvas
Sometimes we get requests for hand painted needlepoint canvases, and other times, we’re asked to design canvases that really need a painter’s skill set.
Being in the Denver area, we are fortunate to have a local canvas painter that loves to paint animals! This cat was done for a customer who does not have any single good photo. I spoke with the customer and mentioned that I know a painter who would love to work on this project and interpret all the photos into one design and they agreed.
And I’m glad they did! They are loving this custom needlepoint project!
If you would like to needlepoint your photo check out our website www.NeedlePaint.com, and if prefer to work hand painted canvases, please email us.

Why not get them a personalized needlepoint belt with their yacht name?
This belt features a line diagram of the yacht, the name, the boat company’s logo, a lime, and a martini glass. Other ideas for a belt are yacht club burgees, nautical flags, state flags, anchors, the possibilities are endless!
Each belt is hand stitched on 18 mesh canvas and uses 100% top grain leather. Or, you can buy a custom needlepoint kit and stitch it yourself! If you are interested in either option, go to our website, NeedlePaint.com, and contact us.

I love stained glass and the beauty that is brings to a church, home, any type of building. So I decided to try to create one of those light filled designs in a needlepoint pillow. Here in Chicago, I have discovered some great stained glass windows, especially at the Smith Museum of Stained Glass on Navy Pier. If you ever visit us check it out! But, in the mean time stitch your own with one of our needlepoint kit designs. You can create that stained glass look by stitching it to a canvas.

This pillow would work nicely to accent stained glass in a room or add some color to a neutral space. You can find in on Needlepaint.com under VIEW MORE NEEDLEPOINT KITS. We have a couple different color choices, but you can always personalize the color to flow in your space!
