Needlepoint in the United Kingdom is often referred to as “tapestry” or “canvaswork”, that is, stitched by needlepoint on stiff open grid canvas mesh. When worked on fine weave canvas, it is also known as “Petitpoint”. Our needlepoint designs are hand crafted with only a basic and simple “tent stitch”, and rely on colour changes in the wool yarn to construct the pattern.
Our regular decorative needlepoint pillows have 132 stitches per square inch. Our Petit Point pillows have an incredible 576 stitches per square inch for even greater detail. Several of our pillows are a mix stitch of regular grosse point Needlepoint and Petit Point stitch. They are indeed a beautiful expression of hand artistry and timeless beauty.
Inspired by Vincent Van Gogh and his contemporaries, this needlepoint cushion captures the Still Life study of Flowers in a Blue Vase. The mood is Impressionist, as differs from realism. The colours are muted and harmonious. A closeup to demonstrate the exquisite craft of Gros Point. A hint of lilac hue in gros point of the background provides romantic ambiance.
