What can I paint for you?
Can't find that perfect needlepoint canvas to stitch? Consider ordering a CUSTOM DESIGN. Painting custom designed needlepoint is my specialty. I have been designing special order canvases for shops and customers for over 20 years. To see examples of what I have created with other customers, please click here. Estimates are free. Below you'll find the steps in how the custom design process works.

1. First, come up with an idea for a design, i.e. for a friend's wedding or for a newborn baby; for someone who's retiring; for a special teacher; for a cell phone holder; for a pillow made from one of your grand kid's drawings, etc.
PLEASE NOTE: I can't copy other artist's designs, but I can do a design in a similar style.

2. Contact me for a free "ball park" estimate.
Please include the overall size

choice, 13 or 18 holes to the inch.

3. Once you have received your estimate and you choose to proceed with your order, please send me any sketches or photos that relate to your design idea. Also, a $25 deposit is requested, which goes toward the sketch and will be deducted from the final cost.

4. When you receive the sketch either in an e-mail attachment or in the mail for your approval, mark any changes to the design that you would like and send the sketch back to me.

5. I'll then paint your canvas, stitch by stitch. Once I receive your payment for the finished canvas, I will mail your design to you via USPS "Priority Mail." Let me know if you want Paternayan wool to be included in your order. Any questions, feel free to contact me!
