What People Are Saying
“Since I began needlepointing in 2014, Janet has finished every pillow and stocking I've stitched. There is no one I would trust more to deliver consistent quality project after project, no matter the materials, fabrics, or finishing style. Her level of craftsmanship is beyond expectation and I know when I send in my stitched canvas, she'll return an heirloom."

"Working with Janet has been a delight. She kept me informed, gave me advice and offered fantastic fabric options. I cannot emphasize enough how much I appreciated her professionalism and commitment to making each of my projects extraordinary. When my prized works made their way back to me the reveal was… SPECIAL! Each piece was expertly finished, and the fabrics were perfectly matched to each project. I cannot wait to send Janet my next project!"

“Needlepointers know the inestimable value of a great finisher who is able to turn completed canvases into priceless keepsakes. My heart truly skipped a beat when I saw the incredible pillows and Christmas stockings finished by Janet Basnett. They were magnificent.
Working with her is an absolute joy. You can provide your own fabrics and trims along with ideas for finishing OR you can do as I have done and put your trust in her impeccable taste, design, and color sense. Janet is an outstanding communicator and goes beyond to ensure that your design ideas are accurately and beautifully represented."
