Laurel Burch Black Cat Needlepoint Kit on NewNeedlepoint.com

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.

Laurel Burch Black Cat Needlepoint Kit

Price: $62.00

* Quantity:

* = Required Field

This is a small design from Laurel Burch. Despite his flowers, this cat has attitude. The Black Cat is a Hand Painted Original Design needlepoint canvas from the famous designer, Laurel Burch.

The design area is 3.5 X 5.5. The entire canvas measures 10 X 8 inches. It is 18 mesh. This could be stitched as large as 6 X 8 inches or as small as 6 rows outside the cat.

There are 10 colors in this design.

I have assembled this kit using Anchor & DMC #8 Perle Cotton Floss, the smaller size floss is a pleasure to stitch 18 mesh canvas with. It should be stitched using 1 strand of floss.

I have not changed the wonderful colors used here but I have used Kreinik #12 Metallic Braid Thread in Copper for the darker gold flowers on the cat's body and the Kreinik #12 Gold for the outlines where gold is shown.

I think the effect of the copper metallic on black with be great.

Your Needlepoint Kit will include a Color Placement Guide and
directions.

All NewNeedlepoint canvases have folded and machine hemmed edges or carefully taped canvases edges. Which one depends on how much white canvas is left outside the design area.

Each kit includes the correct size needle for this canvas.

The amounts of floss or yarn shown in the pictures are for color only, the actual amounts sent may vary from what is shown. The colors will not vary.

Needlepoint thread coverage is not an exact science. I try to make sure there is plenty to finish each canvas with some to spare. If you run short e-mail me and I will send you more at no extra cost.

Remember to stitch 2-3 additional rows all around the completed canvas for finishing.

Large needlepoint canvases will be rolled and sent in a mailing tube,
smaller canvases will be sent flat in a padded envelope.

I do not offer finishing services.
