Friday Favorites – NeedlePaint.com Reviews and New Custom Needlepoint Projects

Last week we got a lot of lovely feedback, it really makes Karen and I smile to know our customers are loving their custom needlepoint kits and belts that we make at NeedlePaint.com.

“My project arrived and looks great. I appreciate to detailed map of colors.”  Lynn – Aug. 21, 2014

“I just wanted to let you know that my husband has been wearing his beautiful belt all the time and he always gets comments-everyone loves it. I also wanted to let you know how well it wears!! It still looks brand new.”  Kathryn – Aug. 19, 2014

“I just got the needlepoint canvas and I am so pleased! The picture details on the canvas are actually clearer than the image I sent you. Since the picture I chose has subtle color changes, I wasn’t at all sure the result was going to be easy to work. But you did a brilliant job with it and I am going to thoroughly enjoy doing the needlepoint. Thank you so much for the outstanding work and the great customer service.”  Janis – Aug. 18 2014

“The needlepoint arrived today & it’s great!” Joyce Aug. 18, 2014

“The canvas is perfect.  Thanks so much.  You are the nicest guy I meet online.  I hope Needlepaint is a big success.”  Barbara – Aug. 17, 2014

“The canvas looks beautiful! Thank you!” Alison – Aug. 12, 2014

“I received the needlepoint belt kit today, and I love it!”  Ellen – Aug. 11, 2014

University of Virginia Campus Needlepoint Belt

We had a customer looking for a one of a kind needlepoint belt featuring the Academical Village / Pavilions at the University of Virginia.

With confidence I told him I thought we could make something that will make his friends jealous.  I think we nailed it!

This design is now available as a personalized needlepoint belt.  We can adjust the monogram and graduation year to order.  Or, it is also available as a stitch it yourself needlepoint kit!

Below I took a photo of the whole belt.  The waviness and blurry spots are due to the “panorama effect” trying to move across the belt and shoot the picture in one shot using my phone.  Still a great picture of a great belt!

We specialize in custom college campus needlepoint belt designs, so if you have a school you’d like us to design a belt for, let us know!
