AboutHenry Babcock Expertise I learned needlepoint from my grandmother over 30 years ago. I can answer most questions on the subject. I know about producing needlepoint as well as cleaning, repairing and restoring.
Question Hello - I have some needlepoint chair seat covers that have the floral design in the centered stitched (I think they came that way) and I am looking for someone stitch the background for me. I have six ( and am looking for two more) any suggestions on people/places that will stitch the background on these? and any suggestions for where to find two more of these? The ones I have are Bucilla, and were my grandmothers. I do not know how old they are. Thank you, Sarah
Answer Sarah,
There are a few companies that offer a stitching service. Try searching online for "needlepoint stitching service"; you should find several places to compare.
As for finding two more pre-worked canvases, try searching online for "pre-worked (or, preworked) needlepoint" and "pre-worked (or, preworked) bucilla needlepoint". Not sure if you will be able to find matching ones, but you might find something close. Not sure if they are all the same, or all different, but you could consider having matching pairs, or matching sets of 4, or you could just have 8 different ones. I've seen dining chairs in all 3 of those configurations.
