Friday Favorites – Art Needlepoint – Stockings – Stamps

Here are some of the great needlepoint projects we made this week.

I’m really excited about one of our needlepoint belt designs!  You may be able to guess which one, but it is overshadowed by the large art needlepoint designs we did this week.  If you look closely at the needlepoint belt canvas, you’ll see we did a whole landscape scene.  It came out really well!

Finally, I’m adding some feedback we got from our customers last week!  We get a lot of great feedback that makes me smile but our marketing director said I should be sharing it, too.

I got the canvas last night.  It looks absolutely amazing.  Even better than I could have hoped.  Thank you so much for everything.

Fantastic Finished Needlepoint Projects – Coat of Arms and a Cat

Last week we had some customers send in pictures of their lovely work!

Natalia in Mexico stitched their family’s coat of arms and Alex has stitched their cat!

I have to say, that I think they turned out great!  I really brightens up my day to see the projects after they are done, I hope it does the same for you!

Custom Kids Train Needlepoint Pillow

Another fun kids pillow design we created this week.

The kids needlepoint train pillow is a classic, but it not only looks great but is educational!  How many toys do you see with the child’s name spelled out on it?

All our designs are made to order, so if you want to change something on this, just let us know!

Groomsmen Gift Idea – Custom Needlepoint Belt

Looking for a groomsman gift that can be used during the wedding and will still be worn for years after?

Our classic pinstripe groomsmen needlepoint belt makes a prefect gift for your groomsmen!

Change the letter to the recipient’s last name or replace the letter with a design of your own.  The colors can be changed to match your wedding, and if you order four or more, you can get a discount!  (email us for information on that)

Custom Christmas Stockings and Happy Holidays to All

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!!!

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!!!

Friday Favorites – Custom Belt Needlepoint Canvases – Marilyn Monroe – Dogs

I know it is no longer Friday, but these images were taken then, and I’m just trying to keep up with the holiday orders.

I’m excited we sold our first Marilyn Monroe needlepoint canvas from New York Needleworks.  It came out very well!

Of course I had to share an image of our custom needlepoint belt canvases, every week brings new challenges and creative new concepts that will end up on a lucky person’s waist.

And last but certainly not least, we have a spread of custom dog needlepoint canvases from photos and one from artist Fowler Ruffin.  Holiday season is here, and keep in mind you have until Dec. 10th to guarantee arrival before Christmas without any domestic shipping surcharge.  (Dec. 17th is the hard cutoff).

Custom Needlepoint Belt Stitched!

I love to design the custom needlepoint belt canvases, but they look so much better when they have been finished!

Big thanks to Jenny in Connecticut for sharing her fabulous stitching, and her input in creating this design.

Also, I want to mention one of our recommended needlepoint belt finishers, Kathy at Leatherprize who took Jenny’s work and put it onto the belt.

If you’ve got an idea for a needlepoint belt canvas, please contact us, we’d love to help!
