Anyone who needlepoints knows the feeling: you can picture the canvas exactly — the dog, the house, the club flag, the awful joke — and no shop on earth sells it. Every friend I stitch with says the same thing. You can commission it for hundreds of dollars, or you can let the idea go.
Point to Stitch started after a needlepoint class at East Hills Inn, in a conversation among friends about exactly that shortage. It is a needlepoint design studio and print shop — not “an app.” The app is one of two doors: design stitch by stitch with real thread colors, at true size, on your actual mesh count. The other door is the Print Studio — send your design and we print it onto Zweigart canvas in 13 or 18 mesh, one piece or a small batch, proofed first.
It’s a one-person shop — stitcher first, software second — which is why the app is one price with no subscription, printing is proofed before anything runs, and a real person answers every message.
You have the thread, the frame, and the idea. You want a chart for the canvas you actually want to stitch — not the closest thing in a catalog.
You are building a line to sell. Chart quickly, revise without starting over, and print small wholesale batches — design tests, restocks, deadline saves — without overseas minimums.
Brides, shower planners, teachers, and shop owners who want stitching as the event itself — a printing table where guests personalize a canvas and take it home finished.
Stitcher, designer, and the one who answers your email. I wanted one place where I could personalize and customize canvases myself — my dog, my friends’ houses, the joke nobody else would print — instead of hunting for the closest thing. My friends and colleagues wanted somewhere to make theirs too, so I built the tool we needed.
Everything you see here — the charting engine, the sample canvases, this website — comes from a small house with a very full craft corner. If something feels off, tell me; it goes straight onto my list.
Design it yourself — $30 once, 14 days free — or send us a design and we’ll print it on real canvas.
