Dear Brenda and Cheryl

Just wanted to let you know that I received the print on the needlepoint cloth today. It was a copy of my granddaughter's picture.

It's perfect !! Thank you so much for your suggestions about the pink highlights. I think they will really make the needlepoint 'pop'.

I will heartily recommend you to my friends and family

Here's how custom needlepoint printing works:

Send us the digital or hard copy image that you want reproduced.

Specify the needlepoint canvas mesh size and the size that you want the design to be (it can be enlarged or reduced from the original). Also, tell us how much blank canvas you want left around the outside of the design area. Be careful with this because the cost of custom needlepoint printing is based on the size of the cut canvas, not just the size of the design area. For example, if you want to
print a design that is 8" x 5" and you want 2" of canvas left all the way, around then the cost of the project will be based on an area 12" x 9". (A 1.5" margin of blank canvas all the way around is the minimum recommended).

Your custom needlepoint printing project will be giclee-painted in a process involving archival, museum-quality high resolution reproduction.

Hello Brenda and Sheryl,

The canvas was waiting for me when I got home from work tonight. It is absolutely perfect! I can't wait to get started.

Thank you so much and, again, a very Merry Christmas to you both!

The designer will work with you to ensure your image is just how you want it before it is printed. She will also let you know if she thinks an image will not transfer well to needlepoint, so that you do not waste your money. The image you send can be adjusted e.g. items removed, colors changed, and so on, so that the final design looks just how you would like it.

What If I Need Threads?

You can commission a custom needlepoint either as canvas-only or with fibers. We can supply cotton, wool or silk threads. The price will depend upon the size of the design and the number of different colors there are in it. We can give you a quote for threads once we have your image design finalized (either before or after printing). Just email us.

What Does Custom Needlepoint Printing Cost?

We charge 65 cents per square inch (plus $ 7 for shipping for orders under $100).

What Image Features Transfer Well To Custom Needlepoint?

Close ups are better than distant objects. Try to avoid too much "busy-ness" in the design. There should be a central object, and it is best if the background doesn't have too much 'going on'. The designer can adjust the photo you send to remove background features and/or lighten objects if necessary. Close-ups will allow the detail to come through which is important when you want to stitch it.

Color images work better than black and white ones, but black and white is possible.

If a picture is very dark it is hard to print so you can stitch it. Lighter colors are best.

The process usually takes 1-2 weeks before you are mailed the canvas (1 week if no threads are required, 2 weeks if we need to kit your canvas. )Times are approximate.
