Designer For A Day
Design your own custom needlepoint (with our help) and let us print it for you.
Simply fill out the form below, telling us about your idea, and we will get in touch to bring your design to fruition.
Please read the following before making a submission.
It is important that you include the following information on the form:
- A description of your idea.
- An approximate design size e.g. do you want a small piece to frame, an ornament, or a pillow-sized design.
- The preferred mesh count.
- Suggested font if you are doing anything with words or a monogram. You can refer to Word or any other program for font ideas ,and we suggest you play around with this before reaching out.
- The color(s) of the design.
- Whether or not you would like us to supply threads.
- Please upload an image if you have one or if you have something that would help guide the design process.
Here are some ideas that work well for custom needlepoint:
A name or initials.
Repeating or recognisable patterns e.g. argyle, stripes, geometric shapes, abstract designs.
Your own or a child's art work, graphic design, illustration.
Special places or logos e.g. a map of your honey's golf course, a company logo that you own or have permission to reproduce, a family crest.
Short Sayings
Art that is in the public domain. Not all art will make a good needlepoint reproduction but we will help you decide before you spend any money.
Here are some things that we cannot reproduce as custom needlepoint:
- Belt designs
- Photographs (because they are hard to stitch and we don't think you'll be happy).
- Any art work or submission you don't own, or have permission to reproduce, or is not in the public domain.
Please also note the following:
If we decide your submission is workable we will charge a $25.00 non-refundable deposit. This will be applied to the design process if we are designing something for you, or to your printing if you provide us with a print-ready file. You can expect the overall cost of a custom needlepoint design to be around 20-40% more than the cost of one of our standard kits of similar size and complexity. Rest assured, we will give you an estimate before a deposit is required.
