About Us

Welcome to The Needlepoint Library! We are passionate about the art of needlepoint and dedicated to bringing you the finest needlepoint products and instructional content.

Taryn, our founder:   Fiber arts have been a lifelong passion of mine. As a former needlepoint shop girl and proud self-proclaimed needlepoint nerd, I love exploring stitches, threads, and techniques and discovering new ways to bring canvas to life. The needlepoint community has always been a special place for sharing ideas, creativity, and encouragement, and teaching allows me to pass that excitement along to other stitchers. Whether it’s building a stitch library or trying a new decorative stitch, I love helping others grow their confidence and enjoyment of needlepoint.

Kami (Taryn's sister and assistant):  My love of sewing, knitting, and stitching began with my grandmother, who patiently taught me the skills and traditions that I still treasure today. Years later, my sister introduced me to needlepoint, and it quickly became a passion—some might even say an addiction!  After a rewarding career as a teacher, retirement has given me the gift of time to fully enjoy creating with my hands. Whether I’m stitching a needlepoint canvas, knitting a new project, or exploring another fiber craft, I find joy in every stitch. I love bringing beautiful designs to life and carrying on the traditions that were passed down through generations of my family.
