Needlepoint - Needlepoint Pillow needs a new 'back'


Expert: Henry Babcock - 12/18/2008

Question
The back side of the pillow is linen, as is the 'cording' around the pillow.  I
haven't been able to find anyone who can replace the fabric on needlepoint.  I
live just north of NYC.
Any ideas how I can get the pillow repaired?  Thanks

Answer
Anne,

If the pillow just needs the back replaced, most upholsterers should be able to handle that job.  If you can't find one locally, you can search online for "needlepoint finishing" or "needlepoint finishing services".  Check out the samples of their services and contact a few of them for price quotes.

Hope this helps,

Henry Babcock
