Timeless Designs

We are pleased that we have a wonderful local artist, Dragana Popara who designs many of our Timeless Designs we will also be releasing designs by designer Ietje Jackovich - watch for new samplers in 2004 by Ietje.

  They are the result from her love of both the Old Masters and petit point.  Although our models are petit pointed, they can also be cross stitched.  

Please note that the model shown is the actual stitched design.

With the increase of computer-generated charts on the market, there is also an increased concern with regard to such charts.

I feel the greatest confusion is the terminology.  “Computer generated” - what exactly does this mean.  In my opinion Computer generated designs are images scanned into the computer and then filtered through a charting program.  “Computer printed” charts are charts that have been hand designed and then input into a program for printing purposes only.

But nothing is black and white and there are differences between the companies that create computer-generated designs.

I cannot speak for all of them but by working in a stitching shop I can tell you some of the things you should be looking for when purchasing such designs.  The most important difference you should be looking for is – is the photo on the cover a picture of the original artwork or of the actual stitched model.  Speaking as a stitcher with little time for actual stitching, I want to see how the design will look before I dedicate months of work into a piece only to discover that the stitched work does not look like the leaflet cover.

With regards to our own line of computer generated charts, “Timeless Designs”, I can assure you that the photo on the cover is the stitched model and that it is not simply scanned through a program.  Once scanned, colours are changed, eliminated and combined, images and faces are shaped, and the chart is not released until after the model is stitched.
