New Custom Needlepoint Belt Design Details

Those of you who are looking for help creating the perfect needlepoint belt for that special someone in your life should see the latest designs from last week!

You’ll see a custom college campus, lots of life treasures, a personalized nautical flag, and a custom duck hunting belt.

Some of the designs came out so well that I had to feature them in close up images.  I love the water skier and the 1956 Mercedes.

Please keep in mind that we sell fully stitched needlepoint belts AND for those who want to do the needlepoint themselves, we design and make needlepoint canvases for belts.

Also note, now is the time to get started on a design for Christmas!  If you like these designs, please share them!

One last photo, this is a belt we stitched that has just a solid green background.  This is actually one of the harder things to do, because any stitching issues show up more obviously.  I’m super happy with how it came out!

I’ve mentioned her before, but it is aways good to remind our readers.

We have a great painter in the Denver area that will do custom projects for us.

This week I met with her for two projects she painted of kids names spelled out in playful kid shapes.  (see the bottom photo)

While chatting, she also had two projects she had finished for women in her stitching group which I love!  The angel stocking really came out amazing.
