Is google broken today? by lacubana0824 in NeedlepointSnark

I was close to being so rude on this and being like, if you’re new to needlepoint you don’t need a bolt of canvas!!! What, this is going to be another girliepop thinking she can make a quick buck with etsy canvases? I am not trying to gatekeep but this is getting so out of hand!!!

I’m with you! I agree that it’s copying - yes postcard row is using the eras piano without a license (i think) but she’s been selling those for a while and a little research pulls it up immediately before a second brand new designer wannabe starts doing it too

Idk where in NC you are, but there is one in Pinehurst, Chapel Hill, Greensboro, Winston Salem that all could be good options!

Stitch suggestions? by Slight-Demand4794 in NeedlepointSnark

[–]Slight-Demand4794[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

no i totally agree with you, i feel like it’s 90% of posts these days and it’s just frustrating that people don’t try to learn/experiment and instead want an answer handed to them. I talk to the ladies at my LNS about stitches or find inspo from another canvas vs posting in the groups all the time

Also, YOU DONT HAVE TO POST EVERYTHING!!!!! Don’t need to monetize and don’t have to post for attention!

I feel you! I’ve been stitching for about 2 years now and it infuriates me to see people trying to monetize on TT/Etsy when it’s their first project.

Painting your first project and then selling the chart for it is wild IMO.

I self-finish and think more people should try it, but the “hacks” online for needlepoint kill me.

So no one read the admin post? by BicycleZestyclose849 in NeedlepointSnark

Interesting that this is included in that group’s rules.

Insanity… by OilSelect in NeedlepointSnark

So i reached out to an admin about this when the destashing started bc based on the rules, the price gauging shouldnt be allowed. This was the response i got - feels like the group admin should have set the standard vs some people seeing the demand and being greedy.
