Welcome to my Needlepoint Patterns website!
 Look for a new fall cushion chart in the July issue of A Needle Pulling Thread magazine. Also check registration for my stitches workshop at the Gibson's Landing Fibre Arts Festival coming up in August.
As a painter I never expected to be so drawn in by stitching, but for the past seven years it has been a key fascination for me. I love the endless ways colour and pattern can be combined, the feel of the pure wool thread and the way the colours look as they go on the brown canvas. There is a "zen" to stitching which I am sure has kept people doing it down the ages.
The designs here are original and have been developed in my studio. They are only available on this site. I have stitched them all myself and made graphs in response to requests by students and others who wished to do them also.
The graphs have been set up in four parts for easy reading. The needlepoints are done with DMC wool on #10 canvas, both easily available. If this is not your favorite wool the shops can help with equivalences. All the charts have been formatted to be downloaded and printed from your own colour printer. If that is not possible a hard copy can be mailed to you.
(I will be away in September so will not be able to do any mailings during that month)
I invite you to try any of my charts that appeal to you and please let me know how you get on with them. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments generally, feedback is welcome.
Look for new patterns as they become available......... slowly.
