Design Your Own Needlepoint Canvas
Create a modern masterpiece in a traditional way by printing your own needlepoint fabric. Choose from 4 tapestry counts to suit your design and experience level and create a customised tapestry. Make your own tapestry perfect for cross-stitch, half-stitch and back stitching.
Surface textures
The needlepoint tapestry canvas is made from 100% cotton canvas which is ideal for tapestry design. If you want to print your own tapestry canvas, there are 4 different needlepoint counts to suit your needs, skill level, and your design. Make your own tapestry and choose from 10, 12, 14 or Aida cross-stitch 14 counts. The flexible custom tapestry fabric is the ideal canvas for printing your designs, with the finer grade allowing the most detail.
Print detail
Needlepoint tapestry canvas comes in four tapestry counts. The custom needlepoint canvas fabric itself is a stark white which is ideal for showcasing vibrant colours. It is important to consider your design before printing on the fabric. If you are looking to make your own tapestry with fine detailing, opt for the 14 count or the Aida cross-stitch. For a more all-over print, the larger 10 grade would suffice.
Usage
Your new needlepoint tapestry canvas is made exclusively for creating tapestries. This is a fun and customised approach to tapestry making, which excludes the need for shop bought designs and patterns. Your artwork is printed directly onto the fabric, allowing you to stitch over it. Make your own tapestry the size you want, the final result is a bespoke work of art you won't find anywhere else.
Print Guideline
What's the best resolution to print in?
We print at 200dpi, which is a good combination of quality and file weight. Ideally your image should be scaled to 100% at 200dpi, this means that no resizing of your file occurs stopping any interpolation.
Should I save my file as a TIFF or JPEG?
For multi-colored or very detailed files we recommend using a tiff format, but they must be flattened. For simple colours and low detail files, a jpeg is fine.
Which color model should I choose? RGB or CMYK?
We advise providing images in the RGB color space. Specifically using the sRGB image profile, to achieve best color results. What does this mean? In your editing software, choose RGB as the working space and assign the image profile as sRGB (full name sRGB IEC61966-2.1)
What does GSM mean?
Grams per Square Meter (GSM) is an international standard for measuring the weight of paper or fabric. GSM uses the weight of a square meter (1000 x 1000mm) as an indication of the weight and thickness of a given fabric. We class 20-100gsm as light (summer fabrics, gauzes and fine silks), 101-249 gsm as medium (most clothing fabrics) and 250+ gsm as heavy (upholstery fabrics, and other specialist fabrics).
What are bleed areas?
When designing your product, it’s best to make sure that your image is slightly larger than needed. In printing, the extra printed image is referred to as a “Bleed Area” or margin, and it is removed from the finished piece. A bleed area acts as a buffer for slight inconsistencies in the manufacturing process. however, it’s important to fill your bleed areas completely, or you may end up with white, unprinted strips along the edge of your finished product.
Do you print on garments a customer supplies?
Unfortunately not. All our garments are printed on flat fabric, and sewn into finished products, which gives a better finished result and all-over print. We test meticulously so that we know what gets best results on our fabrics, and our facilities cater perfectly to them. We do however print sublimation paper to order, so if you have access to a heat press you can press your fabrics or flat garments easily.
Can you Align a Pattern or design across panels of a garment?
We always strive for the greatest accuracy when printing and constructing your garments. However, due to unavoidable stretch or movement of the fabric during the stitching process, we cannot guarantee perfect pattern registration across garment seams. We are generally accurate within 0.08" 0.12", which Is close enough for most patterns, but may show slight issues with detailed geometric patterns.
Can I print my own Labels?
Most of our garments now come with printable label space for you to add your own company information and branding! If you would like to sew in your own labels, we also offer Printed Fabric Labels here.
How is your fabric printing eco-friendly?
With environmental consciousness in mind, our fabrics are all printed using completely water based inks. This means no chemicals or solvents are used. Our heat fixing procedure fixes the colors and prints, avoiding the downsides of steaming, such as excess or contaminated water returning into the waste system. We have one facility in where we conduct all the printing, production and fulfillment.
Please note: As we make everything by hand, all sizes may vary slightly.
How do I know which colours to use and how to stitch?
We make it really easy. Each design is printed in full colour directly onto the canvas, so you can simply follow the image as you stitch — no need to interpret a traditional colour chart. Alongside this, every order includes a printed Colour Map Sheet with clear yarn colour references and easy-to-follow swatches. This helps you match your threads accurately while the printed canvas guides your stitching. This combination is unique to Contrado, giving you both a visual guide on the canvas and a simple reference for selecting the right colours.
How does printing on needlepoint tapestry work?
Printing on needlepoint canvas is a new and innovative way for you to create your own tapestries at home. Once you have chosen the grade of fabric you want, you then upload your artwork onto our online design interface. Your artwork is then printed onto the fabric, essentially creating your very own pattern. You can then grab your needle and thread (we suggest using two strands of thread) and create your very own custom made tapestry.
Is this suitable for all experience levels?
Absolutely. The best thing about our customised tapestry fabric is that pretty much anyone can use it to create their own personalised tapestries. You can create a design using your artwork and even choose the exact size you want. With 4 needlepoint grades to choose from, beginners might feel comfortable using the larger 10 grade first, while those more advanced would love the detailed 14 count.
Do you add White Space around my image?
We add a 2 cm white border to each edge to allow you to wrap the print around your tapestry frame or jig.
