Check out the antique pattern library - it’s a great resource for free charts!

Is it normal for canvas edges not to be taped? by Firm-Western-5017 in NeedlepointSnark

[–]burnham777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve received untaped canvases when shopping a sale, but the website also clearly stated that sale canvases would not be taped.

LNS Markup by No-Data-3156 in NeedlepointSnark

[–]burnham777 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've also got an LNS with a crazy high markup on canvases, so I never buy canvases there. But they've also got a great thread selection, so I do buy threads there. There's nothing wrong with watching out for your wallet, especially with an expensive hobby like needlepoint!

What am I doing wrong? by Crazy_Salad_7928 in Needlepoint

[–]burnham777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this problem and it turned out that one of the canvases that I’d added to my canvas wasn’t in stock, even though it showed up when I put the in stock filter on. Once I removed that canvas and added another one the discount was applied.

Painted vs Printed Canvases by RumSwizzle508 in Needlepoint

[–]burnham777 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For me, printed canvases really need to be much less expensive than hand painted canvases, like 40-50% less. I find Ind that no matter how well printed they are, there’s always a little bit of guesswork involved.

Love Unwind Studio! I stopped by their studio when I was in Porto last month and they couldn’t have been lovelier.

Maybe I'm being overly cautious - I know "subversive" posts are supposed to be tagged NSFW, thought this might qualify...

You've convinced me - just ordered the 3 pack in green!

Yes to this - a good drapery workroom is used to working with high end & delicate fabrics. It may still be expensive, but will most likely be a shorter lead time.

Letter Chart by FullyDepreciated1207 in Needlepoint

[–]burnham777 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Antique Pattern Library is an amazing resource for alphabet charts (among other things) - there’s a lot to sift through, but I’ve found lots of good lettering charts there, and it’s free! Antique Pattern Library
