If you have ever had a finished canvas come off your hands shaped like a parallelogram instead of a square, stretcher bars are your best friend.

Between industry backorders and hard to find sizes, getting your hands on bars can feel like a hunt right now. Whether you track down traditional interlocking bars, grab lightweight preassembled options, or make your own wooden bars at home, keeping your canvas taut saves you serious time and money when it comes time for blocking and finishing.

Stitch however is comfortable for your hands, but if you want your canvas to hold its shape and your tension consistent, using stretcher bars is worth the extra step!

The Heritage Collection Black Rodeo releases this Friday, August 21st at 8pm EST. Working with Kat Kathryn McLaurin on these canvases has been a really special process. Rodeo history is incomplete without the stories of Black riders and wranglers. Our designs honor these cowboys and cowgirls.

Kat here, and the heritage collection is growing! One of my favorite things to stitch is a pillow with a cheeky phrase and let’s just say these phrases…we’ve all heard them before, know them by heart and probably swore we’d never say. These four familiar phrases will be available this Friday August 21st at 8pm est.

Deciding where to allocate your needlepoint budget is tricky when there are so many options!! The investments that actually improve your technique, save you money or time, or elevate your final piece are always the great choices.

Upgrading your setup or trusting a professional finisher completely changes the experience. The same goes for your education. Learning from a stitch guide or sitting down for an in person class gives you skills you will use on every future canvas.
