When we feel a needlepoint freak coming on, this is what we go to: a pillow-sized 10 count canvas. Just the right size to guarantee hours of wonderfully relaxing (and pretty!) stitching without becoming overwhelming. From this 28x28cm finished-size canvas you can make to die for cushions, wonderful footstools and insets for our entryway organizer (beautifully carpented, just for us - take a look).  We've put a slightly modern twist on these wonderful sprays of flowers inspired by a box of greeting cards found in the farm shop.

This needlepoint comes as: a paper-only pattern, pattern drawn on 10 count Zweigart canvas, or a full set complete with canvas, Appleton's brand wool, John James Needle and instructions. You'll still need a frame, a pillow back and inlet (if that's what you're making), an organizer (if that's what your stitching for) or a footstool blank (all available in our shop).

Happy stitching!
