where you can design your own Needlepoint!
What a treat when our customers send back pictures of their custom needlepoint projects fully finished!
This project was based off a water color painting of their childhood house.
The stitcher took some liberties with the flowers below, and really made this a stunning needlepoint house!

The original watercolor we used to create the canvas design.
We had a request for a wedding needlepoint project recently.
The customer loves the waltz ring bearer pillow design, but wanted something for the wall.
What we ended up with was an 8 x 10 inch custom needlepoint canvas that looks amazing!
The soft yellow background goes with their wedding colors, and the background shows more of the damask pattern.

The Waltz Wedding Needlepoint Canvas
A few weeks back, we had a request to design a needlepoint canvas of Manhattan.
The customer loved the realistic feel of our needlepoint designs, but wanted to feature the twin towers and have a sunrise in the background.
It took some time, but it was worth it! The design size is 20″ x 13.8″ inches on a 24 x 18 inch, 14 mesh needlepoint canvas.

In case you have not been on our website lately, or not noticed the small option in the needlepoint designer, you may be glad to hear we now offer both 10 and 12 mesh needlepoint canvases.
10 mesh canvases have larger holes, and appeal to stitchers who may appreciate being able to see the design more easily. As we age, you could understand the appeal in this.
To order a 10 mesh canvas, click on the 10 to see a digital preview of your design.

Always the classic concept, we’ve finally added the nautical flag needlepoint belt to our personalized needlepoint shop.
International maritime signal flags were used around the world for hundreds of years. Flags would be hoisted to communicate between ship captains.
Each of the flags on the belt stand for a letter, and the needlepoint belt below spells out Jacob Payson Chamberlain.
Order your own custom needlepoint canvas, and we will adjust the flags to your request and fit it to your exact waist size. If you’d like to change the background color or modify the design in any way, feel free to contact us directly, we’d be happy to help design the belt of your dreams!

I love weddings, and what better gift to give a friend than a custom needlepoint ring bearer pillow!
This needlepoint design is heavily inspired by our nautical themed “The Knot” ring bearer pillow design. But my lovely wife found a wedding invitation with a state on it, so I decide to make a new design that can feature any state.
Everything in this design is customizable, and all of our pillows can be personalized We can even turn a wedding invitation into a pillow!
Contact us if you are interested in us having us create a custom pillow and check out our personalized ring bearer pillow shop to see more needlepoint kits.

Barbara B recently emailed a picture of the needlepoint pillow she made from a needlepoint kit she ordered from us.
Just in time for Christmas, the receiver absolutly loves it, and who can blame them!
Look at the great stitching, and the piping really works well with it.
Also, the back side is done in a patriotic solid blue velvet plush.

As soon as I came up with the Fluer De Lis needlepoint designs, I knew we had to design Snowflake Needlepoint Belts.
Following a similar idea, I made previews of many colorful ideas as a starting point. You can design your own needlepoint belt or have us customize this design to the exact size and colors you need.

My wife was inspired last year by the “war and peace” stocking Peggy stitched for her granddaughter last year. After seeing it, she decided she wanted to make our nephew his own needlepoint stocking.
Not being a very experience needlepointer, I’ve been impressed. At Peggy’s suggestion, we bought the NeedlePoint Book by Jo Ippolito Christensen, and really had a good time with it. Rather than doing all tent stitches, she found it a lot more enjoyable to follow Peggy’s lead, and do most of the sections in different stitches.

As time went on, she got better an better, and now with another addition to the family this year, I’ll have to start thinking of a new needlepoint design to make on NeedlePaint!
