With hundreds of exciting designs for every stitching style, you may be wondering which one to pick for your next project! This handy guide will help to narrow down your options and choose the perfect piece. Here are a few things to consider when selecting your kit or canvas:
Time
If you enjoy the thrill of new projects, switching up your style, or taking your piece on the go, opt for a smaller design. On the other hand, if you want to fully immerse yourself in the stitching experience over the course of several weeks or months, a larger project with three-dimensional elements like our Toy Store will bring you to your happy place.
Type of stitch
Kits can be worked in all different types of stitches! Elizabeth Bradley kits incorporate the British tradition of Victorian Cross Stitch, while Needlepoint To Go designs utilize the durable Basketweave Stitch. You can also add fun textures and patterns with decorative stitches such as the Diagonal Mosaic Stitch, Diagonal Scotch Stitch, and Skip Tent Stitch. To ensure you have all the support you need, our kits include a stitch guide, or you can take a look at our free online resource library. For even more in-depth information, check out our on-demand needlepoint classes.
Skill level
We offer a wide variety of projects for beginners and experts alike, all ranked by difficulty. Level 1 designs are suited for beginners or those looking for a quick stitching project. You can work your way up to Level 4, where more intricate designs and elaborate stitches are used.
Customization
A canvas is the way to go if you prefer to personalize your design with your favorite threads and stitching techniques. For a guided experience that includes the necessary supplies to complete the design, opt for a needlepoint kit.
