Over the years, we’ve taught countless beginners to stitch every single one of our canvases. That said, some projects are easier than others. You can find info about the skills needed for each project on the product page, right under the details about Dimensions and Materials.

As with all things, there are trade-offs — printed canvases are not as precise as stitch-painted canvases — there may be areas where you have to make a creative call on stitch colors or design details.
If you’re a perfectionist, you may want to choose a hand-painted canvas. You can read more about how our canvases are made here.
