General Needlepoint Questions

What Does Mesh Count Mean?

In needlepoint, "mesh count" refers to the number of holes or openings per linear inch in the canvas or fabric used for needlepoint projects. It indicates how fine or coarse the canvas is.

For example, a canvas with a higher mesh count will have more closely spaced holes and will be finer, allowing for more detailed work. On the other hand, a canvas with a lower mesh count will have larger, more widely spaced holes and will be coarser, suitable for projects with larger stitches and less intricate details.

Mesh count is an important consideration when choosing a canvas for a needlepoint project, as it can significantly impact the level of detail and precision you can achieve in your stitching. We offer both 18 mesh count and 14 mesh count, with 18 being the most popular. 

What Needle Size Should I Use?

For an 18 mesh canvas, we suggest using size 22 needles. For 14 mesh, size 20 needles are recommended. You can contact or visit your local needlepoint store and they will be happy to help you out!

Product Questions

What Type of Canvas Do You Use?

All of our canvases use the popular Zweigart Orange Line White MonoDeluxe canvas. The majority of our canvases are 8" x 8" with designs around 4" or smaller. 

Do You Provide Needles and Threads?

At this time, we only provide needlepoint canvases. Needles and threads (and any other needlepoint accessories) will need to be elsewhere.

How Are The Designs Applied To The Canvas?

We print each canvas as opposed to hand painting the designs on our canvases. Rest assured, we format and print our designs in a process that matches the design colors as close to the stitch intersections as possible.

What Is The Difference Between Painted and Printed Canvases?

Hand painted canvases are individually hand-painted by skilled artists. Each canvas is a unique piece of art. Hand-painted canvases are usually more costly due to the time and skill involved in creating them.

Since we aim to offer affordable needlepoint canvases, we print all of our designs onto the canvases. Our formatting and process aligns the colors to the intersections as closely as possible and takes very little time at all to print - giving us the ability to sell them at an affordable price!

Ordering and delivery

Where is my order confirmation?

An order confirmation is automatically sent to your email address when you place an order. If you haven’t received your order confirmation within 24 hours, please get in touch with us just in case there’s a problem with your order. Please check your mailbox’s spam or junk folder before contacting in case the order confirmation has been diverted there.

How do I cancel my order?

There is only a short amount of time between when you place your order and when we start processing it. If you contact us straight away after ordering, we may be able to cancel your order before it’s processed. If not, we’ll despatch your order and then you can return it to us if you wish upon receiving it.

When will my order arrive?

We typically print and ship each order we receive within 1-2 business days. Orders that require shipping within the U.S. should receive their orders within in a week, but often times it is only 3-4 days after the order is placed. Shipping to countries outside of the U.S. may take up to 14 days. Please get in touch if your order hasn’t been delivered according to the expected timescales, and we will check your order status.

What countries do you ship to?

We ship to most regions worldwide!

How much is shipping?

Shipping costs depend on the item(s) you’ve ordered and the area where it’s being delivered. Most orders are $5 or under for shipping. If your order value is more than $75, we provide free shipping within the U.S.

Can I track my order?

Yes. We’ll provide updates at every stage of your order, from the moment you place it, through to despatch and delivery. In your delivery confirmation emails, you’ll receive a tracking reference which you can use to check the progress of your order online.

Returns

Can I return or exchange an item?

You can absolutely return your item to us, within 14 days after receiving it, as long as it’s undamaged, unused and contained in its original packaging with all tags and labels attached. Unfortunately, we don’t offer exchanges. If you’re unsure about clothing sizes, we recommend ordering the two closest matches and returning the one that doesn’t fit.

How do I return an item?

Please contact our customer service team via Contact Us page. Providing the return is within the 14-day cancellation period and meets our return criteria, we will issue you with a return note by email. You need to print this off and attach it to the packaging of the product when returning it to us. You will need to arrange and pay for suitable packaging when returning an item.

My order has arrived but it’s not as I expected. What can I do?

In the rare event that your order arrives damaged or faulty, please contact our customer service team via our Contact Us page. We’ll respond within 48 hours. If you just don’t like the product for any reason, we’ll gladly accept it back as a return, providing it’s in “as new” condition, with its original packaging.
