NeedlePaint offers Zweigart Mono Deluxe needlepoint canvas.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Project size:<\/em><\/span>
\n<\/em><\/span>Choosing the overall design size of your canvas \u2014 do you want to stitch a belt, pillow, key fob, wallet, flask or maybe even a guitar or purse strap.\u00a0We can create very large canvases, small canvases and everything\u00a0<\/span>in-between.<\/p>\n

Canvas Mesh size:<\/span>
\n<\/em>Choose the canvas mesh size that works best for you \u2014\u00a0<\/i>The mesh size of the canvas represents the number of stitches per inch. An 18 mesh canvas (with 18 stitches per inch) is usually used for smaller projects that\u00a0require more detail; and a 10 mesh canvas would be used on something like a large floor pillow. It often\u00a0depends on what type of thread you want to use, or maybe even what you can see visually.<\/p>\n

\"NeedlePaint<\/a><\/p>\n

NeedlePaint offers DMC embroidery floss, or Waverly wool for your canvas!<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Types of\u00a0thread:<\/span>
\n<\/em>Choosing the\u00a0type of thread depends on your canvas mesh size and your preference. 10, 12 and 14 canvas mesh sizes work great with\u00a0wool thread. 14 and 18 mesh sizes work great with DMC embroidery floss. Thread choices are varied, and at Needlepoint we\u00a0offer\u00a0two\u00a0types of thread. You have\u00a0the option to of\u00a0DMC embroidery floss, which is a 100% pearl cotton six-strand thread; and Waverly wool, which is 100% wool, and a three ply\u00a0thread. We also will be happy to create\u00a0a canvas for you without supplied thread. We know that a many of you like to use thread from your own stash, or simply like to pick the thread type and colors yourself.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Printed <\/em><\/span>needlepoint canvas:\u00a0<\/span>
\n<\/em>NeedlePaint<\/a> offers a huge selection of stock designs. If you’re looking for custom needlepoint<\/a>; we can draw it for you, or we can\u00a0print an image directly onto the canvas for you from a photo, drawing or\u00a0graphic. We create your design image in a computer file, which assigns each square on the\u00a0canvas a color. We then print your image onto blank canvas with a heat transfer process, and our computer generated file creates a stitch chart color guide. These charts help with the process of stitching; letting you know what color to use in each square. This is especially helpful if you have a background in cross-stitching, but not needed if you are used to following the colors on on the canvas.<\/p>\n

\"handpainted<\/a><\/p>\n

This is a hand painted needlepoint canvas we did for a customer, who preferred a solid lavender background and wanted to add a decorative border, using the original photo.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Painted needlepoint canvas:<\/span>
\n<\/em>NeedlePaint would be happy to provide you with a hand painted canvas. This is a great option if you prefer to stitch following the colors that are painted on the canvas and you don\u2019t need stitch charts for reference. Although a printed canvas is more cost effective if you are on a budget, a hand painted canvas is always a great option. Let us know if you would prefer a painted canvas, and we will be happy to give you a price quote for your project.
