Stitch Bear Art, a printed needlepoint canvas by Seg de Paris: a geometric cubist brown bear with red fir trees, a white moon and a chevron pattern.

A little stitcher's folklore: cubist artists broke their subjects into flat geometric planes, an idea that suits needlepoint perfectly, one colour block at a time. French printed tapestry canvases have been a favorite with stitchers for generations, because the colours are already on the canvas and no chart counting is needed.

Why this canvas: the full-colour print shows exactly where each shade goes, so there is no chart to count and you can simply relax and stitch; it is printed on genuine Zweigart canvas in France, so the mesh stays square and the colours stay crisp from the first stitch to the last; and buying the threads yourself means you choose the look: Colbert wool for a classic tapestry finish, or Mouliné and Pearl cotton for a finer sheen.

Canvas includes: one Zweigart 10-count canvas (100% cotton, 40 holes per 10 cm), designed and printed in France with the design in full colour, and a thread list naming the DMC Mouliné, Colbert wool, Retors and Pearl cotton shades to buy. Stitch used: half stitch. Not included: threads, needle and frame, which are sold separately.

Match each printed colour to the thread list, then cover the canvas in half stitch, working the main shapes first and the background last. Mounting the canvas on stretcher bars or a frame keeps it square, and a tapestry needle size 20 to 22 suits the 10-count mesh.

Canvas size: 40×50 cm (15.7×19.7 in). A classic size for a framed tapestry picture or a pillow front. It looks at home in a modern living room, a study or a studio, and makes a thoughtful gift for modern-decor fans and design lovers.
