Send us your stitched needlepoint belt for professional finishing at 3811 Hillsborough Street, Raleigh, NC 27607, Attn: Amy. Include a note with your name, contact information, and instructions on your finishing choices. Read below for highlights. For the full information on Belt Finishing, click here.

How much should I stitch?

The finished belt size is best determined by taking a belt that is currently being worn and measuring from A (the most worn hole) to B (the top of the buckle prong).

The length of the stitched needlepoint canvas when finished will be 6 inches shorter than the finished belt size. For example: a 36-inch belt will require 30 inches of stitch needlepoint.

Stitch 2 to 3 rows extra along the top and bottom edge of the design. These stitches will be rolled over to form an edge for the belt.

Approximately 1.5 - 2 inches of stitched canvas will be covered by leather in the finishing process.

What are my options for needlepoint belt finishing?

Our belt finisher provides x2 options for the belt buckle (silver or brass).

Our finisher provides x3 options of leather for finishing. Pictured below in order, they are black, light brown, and dark brown.

*Note: if none of these options work for you, please call us at (888) 769-7446 (Domestic) or +1(919) 828-5538 (International) to discuss your options.

What should I include when I bring in or ship you my belt for finishing?

When you bring in your belt for finishing, we will fill out a form with you. If you ship in your belt, please send it to 3811 Hillsborough Street, Raleigh, NC 27607, Attn: Amy. You should include a note with your finished belt that has the following information:
