Welcome to the Bristly Thistle needlepoint store!

The Bristly Thistle offers you a beautiful selection of handpainted needlepoint canvases, threads and supplies.

In March, we moved into our new store in Petoskey about a block away from the old store. We have a wonderful classroom upstairs, more space and lots of natural light for matching colors.

We went to the Fall show in St Louis where we found many new canvases and new designers. We also brought back some new Thanksgiving designs.

We are featuring selected Melissa Shirley designs we found at the show at 50% off and more!

We have just added a section of Alice Peterson Stitch & Zip kits. They make great stocking stuffers or gifts and we have over 100 of them in stock. And, they are all $22 or less.

Michele has started a new Tips and Techniques blog where she discusses her current projects. Please check it out and let her know what you think!

New designers in our store include Artists Collection, Cheryl Schaeffer, Clara Wells, DesignGallery, Needle Deeva, Silver Needle and Zecca. More new needlepoint canvases have also arrived from Alice Peterson, DJ Designs, Dream House, Elizabeth Turner, Ewe & Eye, j child, JP Needlepoint, Julia's Needleworks, Mindy, Tapestry Tent and Treglown Designs.

Subscribe to our needlepoint blog to learn all about new items as they arrive in the shop. And, you can sign up for our Mailing List to hear about all our sales and special offers.
