There are many small kits available - which do not require a huge investment of time or funds - to see if this art - pastime -- is for you.
The canvas should have at least one to two extra inches surrounding the small painted designs - to later use for blocking and finishing your project.

Finishing the kits is a new world today. Historically needlepoint was used for tapestries - chair covers - carpets and other useful house warming accessories.
Today - with perfected climate controls - these uses are still essentials - yet designers have branched into more modern ideas.
This kit is the perfect size for a cell phone cover - and who does not like a classic initial to carry with them.
So -- the other idea of people not wanting a needlepoint pillow in their minimalist modern decorations - will be delighted to receive your gifts.
Bingo -- a win-win situation !!
