It is never too early to start on a personalized needlepoint christmas stocking.

If you’ve stitched one in the past, you’ll know the projects can stretch out over months, and if you start too late you may have to wait until the following year until it is done and ready for the recipient!

We created four new designs this month.

Two new Avesta designs that are coordinating but different.  These are just ripe for the creative stitcher, but detailed enough that any stitch is going to look great! Colorful Avesta Stocking Kit  Mixed Avesta Stocking Kit  Original Avesta Stocking Canvas

The Lollipop Mixed Stocking Needlepoint Kit coordinates with the Christmas Treats Canvas.

And lastly, the new Santa’s Dove Needlepoint Canvas could coordinate with the Reindeer Stocking and Nutcracker Stocking Needlepoint Kit.  These are not as color matched, but still would work together nicely.

Keep in mind, if you love these designs but want to change the color pallets, just let us know, all of our orders are custom made and of course your names will be put on your stockings and a preview emailed before the canvas is shipped!

Our track and field needlepoint belt is for that special track star in your life, or it makes a great gift for a great coach!

This simple design will certainly stand out when worn!  The colors can be changed to match your school’s and the monogram and jersey letters are designed to per personalized.

I’m also attaching some cool needlepoint belt designs we made last week below!

We are no longer only selling needlepoint kits, we can now also stitch it and make into a pillow.

These are two custom needlepoint pillows we made a few weeks back, and I love all three of them!

We’re working on an instructional video to help you explain in more detail how to design your own pillow, but the website is actually quite simple so click here and give it a try!

Just in time for the holidays, I’m attaching pictures of a custom needlepoint christmas stocking that we stitched for a customer a few weeks back.  It was a big hit!

We used the Blue Snowman Needlepoint Stocking as the backdrop and replaced the snowman with their dog!

Also, before you leave this page, I want to thank all of our customers for keeping us very busy this year!

It has been a challenge to get all the orders finished in time, but we did it!  And, on that note, we will be taking some family time this year and will be closed for the holidays for the next two weeks.  (We will return emails and phone messages on 1/6/14)

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

I know it is almost Christmas, but it is already time to start thinking about upcoming events this summer!

We’ve got three new custom wedding ring bearer pillow designs on our website.

Each design will be personalized for you, and you now have the option to stitch it yourself or have us stitch it for you!

We’re still working out the bugs on the website, but we’re excited about it!  So please let us know if you encounter any issues.

Amazing Dogs in Needlepoint

We love our dogs here, and we love to make dog needlepoint kits for our customers, but every once in a while, we get some images that you have to see to believe.

Here are two amazing works recently finished by Dorothy in New York (she stitched Spud) and Linda in California (who stitched Parker).

Needlepointing a photo of your dog can be a challenge, but if you have the patience, it is worth it!

Nice stitching Dorothy and Linda and thanks for sharing!!!

We are celebrating the season with three new fantastic needlepoint Christmas stocking designs!

Not too much for me to say in this post, other than a warm thanks to Tracy for her hard work creating them.

Here are links to the three needlepoint kits:  Avesta Needlepoint Stocking, Christmas Treats Stocking, and the Holiday Magic Stocking.

Each design is made to order and will be personalized before it is made.  The colors can be changed and if you’d prefer a larger size, that is possible, too!
