Welcome to The Needlepoint Library! We're here to help you discover new stitches, build confidence, and create a beautiful reference library you'll use for years to come.

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: My love of sewing, knitting, and stitching began with our grandmother, who patiently taught me skills I'll always treasure. Years later, Taryn introduced me to needlepoint, and I was hooked! What started as a new hobby quickly became one of my favorite ways to relax and create.  After a rewarding career as a teacher, retirement has given me the time to enjoy all the fiber arts I love. Whether I'm stitching a needlepoint canvas, knitting something new, or working on another creative project, I simply enjoy making things with my hands. It's especially meaningful to me to carry on the traditions that were passed down through generations of our family.

Together, we hope The Needlepoint Library inspires you to learn new stitches, build your own reference collection, and enjoy every stitch along the way.
