All of these needlepoint pillows or canvas are stitched by HAND, they need much patience and takes many hours to complete just a few inches...GEOGEROUS WORKMANSHIP! The needlepoint industry in China encounters difficulties due to short labor cost increasing rapidly. Less and less people continue to stitch needlepoint because it is a time consuming work and the stitchers can make more money to do other jobs. So it is not an alarmism that the high quality needlepoint pillow will disappear in the near future. All stock in my store are limited, once sold out, may no longer available! Absolutely the high quality needlepoint pillows are increasing in value with the time passing by.

Needlepoint was born to recreate the look of woven tapestries. Sometime during the 16th and 17th centuries, embroidery on canvas, or needlepoint as we know it today, began to develop. Needlepoint was popular during colonial times, where it was used for pictures, upholstery fabric, and fashion accessories.
Needlepoint is the technique of forming stitches on an open-weave fabric called canvas. The canvas is constructed with vertical and horizontal threads that are woven together to make precisely placed holes between threads. The points at which these threads meet are called meshes. Needlepoint designs are more durable than other types of needlecrafts, making them well suited for chair seats, pillows, and rugs. In the modern day and age, the canvas is no longer limited to an open weave fabric; it is made of plastic in different shapes and colors and is used for all kinds of different products..
Needlepoint was called tent stitching in the 1700s and differed chiefly from cross stitch in that it used only half of the stitch.
