About Us

The Julie Mar Needlepoint company is a line of handpainted needlepoint canvases. Julie Thompson is the artist for and owner of Julie Mar Designs. She first began doing needlepoint design for the clients of her custom interior design business. In 1991, the Julie Mar line went to market for the first time to sell to shop owners all over the country. The landscapes were an important part of the line called "Art to Stitch" and had stitch guides to go with them. Being an oil and pastel painter Julie prefers light stitching for art on the wall so the designs were stitched showing the painted background. These are still available today.

Most of the line today consists of flowers. Julie Mar is a traditional line with continuity in the designs and can be recognized as Julie's. You will find new designs at each National Needle Arts show.
