NewNeedlepoint.com has been open almost 2 years now. There have been many changes as I find my “spot” in the on-line needlepoint community.
NewNeedlepoint.com specializes in books, both new and used books. The needlepoint and Bargello Needlepoint book categories are extensive. Many of the books here are rare, some are quite rare and all have reviews I have written.
There are pictures of all the books. I find a picture of the cover sometimes tells you more about a book then any review can.
All the used/rare books have pictures of the book cover or dust jacket plus a picture of the inside pages so you can see the condition of the books for yourself.
I know it is a given in the used book market that you keep the dust jacket, no matter the condition but I find many good or very good condition books inside terrible and dirty dust jackets. In that case I remove them, no matter what the market “says”.
NewNeedlepoint.com is currently expanding it’s collection of other Needlework books. Included are Cross-Stitch, Glorafilia, Ribbon Stitching, Embroidery, Punchneedle, Bead Stitching, Whitework, Blackwork, Beginner Needlepoint and more.
I will continue to sell selected needlepoint canvases & kits including the work of Patt & Lee Designs, Laurel Burch and more. The Patt & Lee collection of Scrap Thread canvases are a wonderful way to use your extra yarn and thread stash.
The items in the small tools category is also carefully chosen. I only sell tools I have used myself.
NewNeedlepoint.com continues to change while I work to make it as good as it can be. I hope you like what you see.
The official name of this is Needlework On-The-Go Travel Roll.
This clever storage roll is a great help when carting your needlepoint projects in progress around with you.
This is a great gift for any stitcher you know, we all hate untangling threads.
I keep each needlepoint canvas I am working on in a separate Claire Sanchez tote bag (notice how neatly I inserted a plug for the bags?). Inside the bag the floss or the yarn becomes tangled, no matter how carefully I sort, smooth & knot ... More Info

Elsa Williams is one of the better known needlework designers. Her designs and products include needlepoint, embroidery, crewel work, cross stitch and more. The needlework products bearing her name are too numerous to mention.
This is Elsa William's Bargello book. It is one of the most important of the early books on Bargello needlepoint. it is another fine Van Nostrand Reinhold book, published in 1967. It is hard cover and has 64 pages.
This is an interesting book by Hope Hanley. it is not a Needlepoint design and instruction book, it is more a history of Needlepoint here in America. This book was published by Weathervane Books in New York in 1969.
Hope Hanley has done a detailed and carefully researched study, using old needlework books and ladies magazines, as they were then known, as well as worked pieces in museums and private collections.
Ms. Hanely traces the European origins of early American Needlepoint ... More Info
