    Additional Info

    Is This Kit Right For Me?

    Skeleton Portrait has optional decorative stitches, so some experience is required/recommended if you want to stitch these. This is not designed as a beginner kit, and we recommend that you have stitched prior needlepoint projects.

    The design is on 18 holes to the inch canvas, which some people find hard to see.

    Finishing Ideas

    NB: Finishing materials are not included.

    Options for finishing include:

    • Self-finish the ornament in our leather ornament holder as shown. We have red and black options.
    • Self-finish in one of our wooden ornament frames (two styles; three colors)
    • Make it into an ornament by following one of the many videos on Youtube (search "how to finish a needlepoint ornament").
    • Find a professional finisher. Etsy is a good place for this.

    What Else Do I Need?

    You will need a pair of embroidery scissors suitable for snipping threads. We have several on-site. This is the only essential additional item required.

    The following are optional (see the Add-Ons below):

    • If you want to stitch with the canvas held taut on a frame (optional but recommended for ease of stitching), you will need two pairs of 8-inch stretcher bars, and some thumbtacks.
    • Needle threaders help thread your needle.
    • A needle minder is a great tool if you're using a frame because you always know where your needle is!
