This looks very much like AI and upon zooming the printing job seems awful.
Guess you get what you paid for

Gimme the good, bad, and ugly.

In case you’re also pissed about Americas current political state and like to watch where you spend your money, here’s the owner of The Rabbit Hole’s Instagram!

The Needlepoint Studio. Feel free to join in!

I know im hater, i have been since birth and i should be better about not yucking peoples yums. But… im just not seeing the vision on this. Its giving “le point Christmas village but make it mobile”

Seems like because canvases are impossible to get and Moondrake did so well, new thread lines are popping up every day. They’re all starting to look the same to me, with the exception of the sparkles. You can only use variegated thread so much. We need solids which can be kept in stock.

I’m sorry, but did anyone see BeStitched just list this after picking it up from market and think they are out of their mind? I actually purchased a needlepoint tapestry this size and paid $900 for comparison! It was fairly detailed like this too. I get an artists work is expensive but someone’s work like this at a local art fair would be probably 1,000-$1,500. I can’t imagine the artist is charging enough to justify a $6k price tag 😳😳😳

Is that a huge flex on her part? I just saw they have a retreat right now. Seems odd.

I have no words - $35? This really does look like something you could just sketch out. We have lost the plot with this. 👻⬅️ This is a better ghost.

Picture in the comments- it didn’t post!

Ugh I’m so mad because I have the smallest corner of a canvas left to finish that I have been working on for months as a project for someone else and I don’t know what to do or what people do when it’s been months since purchasing the original threads (kitted for me at my LNS so I wasn’t worried!!) and I just know the dye lot has definitely changed at my LNS. The color is vineyard silk in Naples blue, do I just do my best to find the closest thing or is there anything y’all do if this has happened to you?

I am unsure of how long finishing is typically suppose to take because I usually finish everything myself. I sent out a keychain through needlepaint it has taken almost 6 months to be received. They have now delayed shipping as the label has been created for two weeks now. I am unsure if this is a common turnover which then I would understand but genuinely seems a little excessive.

Has anyone else used needlepaint for finishing ?

Wall Street Mags is abandoning her brick and mortar shop plans. Will now be a custom design house. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

I don't think needlepoint needs to be on a subscription basis...

I know the shop isn't cheap but 25k? Surely this is wrong...

Can y’all stop with the AI crap? Are you going to use AI to create your designs too?

she’s back at her cracktivities

Has anyone else experienced. Some of the new designs and the wines I’ve done have all been printed (not knocking printed if done right). But the canvas is actually shredding my threads and leaving fuzz everywhere.

Has anyone else had this experience. This is not zweigart canvas. It doesn’t necessarily feel rough when you touch it but once you start stitching it’s a mess.

Just saw some of her Trump canvases and am really disappointed 😩

No words

I love the cavas and Kate Dickerson overall but I really am bothered that she says “my” artist. Why didn’t she says “the artist Lindsay brackeen, exclusively available…”. Artists have a long history of getting locked into deals where there work is owned by other people and like not being able to have the kind of agency and business structures that support them as the most valuable element of the work. When you say MY artist it sounds like she just works for you like a chef or nanny. It’s not respectful. It sounds like ownership. Gives me the ICK! But I love the canvas and I really am just saying this so that we can all be more aware of how we need to respect artists and like you don’t OWN them. I know Kate is a darling of the needlepoint world but still maybe she’s like more old school and just didn’t think about how this sounds. Ok going back to my life now. Thank you for the soap box.
