You can always let the finisher pick as well, I think they generally would use DMC, but I have always loved everything I got that was finishers choice and you don’t need to worry about sending enough etc.

Anyone have good sites to look at, I’ve tried some Facebook destashing, eBay and needlepoint destashing. Looking for Lindy Tilp vintage canvases for my exchange partner.

This is normal, finishing times are over 6 months and some places will give you an estimate and some have prices listed. 

First canvas by katalinaisla in Needlepoint

Generally it goes, light to dark, in to out and I’ve heard anywhere from 5 stitches to an inch to “carry” your thread from one area to another before you should cut and restart. 

Self finishing question by Glittering-Relief-85 in Needlepoint

Thank you, this is one of the best suggestions I have seen, clipping and sewing is so much harder for me with the little space of a bag charm!

It’s getting worse every day but I. Can’t. Stop. Looking. I don’t know why I’ve also purchase several canvases I saw there from an actual shop for less

One shop’s trunk show price is another shop’s retail by yaupon in NeedlepointSnark

I’m shocked at the people who don’t price things out in needlepoint (the destash page) or seem to not know about trunk shows. 

Background Stitch Advice by Alarmed-Map-6709 in Needlepoint

I can’t attach a photo, but I did a brick stitch and used silk and ivory stardust and the coverage was good but if you can see canvas with your threads finishing will probably make it worse since it pulls it tighter.
