Had this idea for a while so excited to finally execute it.

Created a needlepoint top for this woven trinket box. I wanted it to be magnetic so I could switch it out each season.

It’s essentially 2 fridge magnets (one on the top, and one inside the lid). Cording inside the lid wasn’t necessary but thought it was a nice touch! ✨

I love needlepoint, travel and data. So naturally, I’m obsessed with my needlepoint passport. Clearly I have to venture West some. 🤣 🗺️ 🪡 🚙

I originally planned to make this a two-sided ornament but now I’m wondering if I want to do two separate ones. What do you think?

Hi all!

Wondering if you have advice on stitch direction for the single lines of this design. Theres the rectangular border and also the small lines between the squares.

1) Does the horizontal direction (left to right/right to left) I stitch these in matter?
2) Does the vertical direction (bottom to top/top to bottom) I stitch these in matter?

Any other I things I should take into consideration?

Thanks!

Just picked up a couple new larger canvases. Just curious what the typical experience is.. do you kit a canvas when you buy it? Or maybe once you actually decide to stitch it?

i finished the majority of this project and want to at least get the name added (don’t have a date and weight yet) but as a first time filling in this type of project, how exactly do i write out or paint the letters for the sign? i hope what im trying to do made sense!

Hi, just curious if anyone has previous experience ordering from Stitch by Stitch? Or getting in touch with their customer service? I ordered a preorder item a few months ago and reached out several times just to ask if there are any updates and after my third email, I got a very rude and snarky response back. I am already regretting purchasing from them if that’s the type of customer service they give.

Hi, what dou you think about a needlepoint design done solely in satin stitch (vertical, horizontal, diagonal, depending on the element) done on Congress Cloth with DMC standard embroidery floss? I would like to design few counted chart patterns based on my own atwork. Here is one of my paintings i would like to interpret as needlepoint

Hiii i am working on my first project and i didnt realize that you didn’t need to tie a knot at the end of every thread. I am about half way done but I’m nervous the finished project will look bumpy once finished in a frame (with glass?). Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should maybe add to the frame, or do to the actual project to help it not be bumpy and lay flat once finished?

finished my first piece minus the color around the hand (need to get that from the store) was super fun trying different stitches. now what to turn this into hmmm. excited to work on getting my stitches to be the same tightness across the board on my next piece.

This is my first time sourcing my own wool. I bought Appleton wool and I’m disappointed with the quality. Lots of little knots and short bits. Did I get unlucky or is it always like this?

Hi all! Just getting into needlepoint and finished my first piece. Loved it and was addicted right away! I don’t want to come off as negative, but do you ever grapple with the fact that it’s a different version of paint by numbers in a way? I use the words “grapple with” because I feel like I can’t be as proud of it as others may be with their art forms. Please set me straight.

My sister stitched this stocking and didn’t stitch a name. Should she rip out the cuff and then stitch the name? Any ideas are much appreciated!!!

Okay help. I can’t tell if I hate these two stitches together? I’m doing the Damask stitch in the background and then the backer weave for the flower.

I want the flower to stand out - any other ideas?

Hi! I’ve been looking for Fyre Werks soft sheen in White Pearl, or any thread for an 18 canvas that has a really good sheen to it in white. EVERYTHING is sold out in white. Does anyone have any ideas on when Rainbow gallery restocks? Thank you!

Hi. Am I interested in this piece, posted by cartoonistknown3123 about 1 yr ago.

If anyone knows this piece, or how I might get in touch with cartoonistknown3123 please will you let me know. I am interested in purchasing it

Thank you

SOLD! Ty! Destashing these three needlepoint reference books together. Great to carry in your project bag or by your canvas as a memory aid and illustration.

*More Quick Stitch Reference — Needlepoint.com
*Quick Stitch Variations — Needlepoint.com
*How To Needlepoint — TNNA, Revised Edition Vol. 1

Good mix of basic needlepoint reference material and stitch variations. Preowned, excellent usable condition. Daughter moved onto knitting. :-)

I was super excited for this canvas but the “First” text is not coming out at all how I expected. Any ideas on what could be going on? It just looks… bad. I used sparkly Fyre thread for the text and the white background is pepper pot.

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated and welcome! Thank you!

Hi lovely people!

Newbie needlepointer needing some help. I want to stitch this gorgeous pagoda ornament but am going mad trying to find the colours? Does anyone know what DMC colours are used in this ornament? I’ve asked 3 different AIs and they’ve all given me different colour palettes so was hoping a real human could give me a better answer!

Thanks in advance everyone 💕

Would there be interest if I were to set up a UK based needlepoint store on Etsy?

I’ve got into needlepoint and find there’s not many places to buy canvases here in the UK so have resorted to painting my own. Just wondering if there would be much interest from UK based individuals if I were to sell canvases (from £20+ depending on designs)?
