Cleo Sitting Pretty – Hand-Painted Needlepoint Canvas – PET-424 (WS)

She doesn’t lounge. She presides. Cleo has claimed the wingback chair with the quiet authority of someone who has always known it was hers — sitting upright, composed, a cobalt blue pillow tucked neatly at her side as if placed there by a very attentive member of staff. Her cream and grey spotted coat is impeccable. Her expression says she’s been expecting you.

Hand-painted on 18-mesh mono canvas, this portrait captures the particular magic of a poodle who takes herself seriously — the soft, cloud-like texture of her coat, the warm wood frame of the chair, the crisp blue and cream stripes that make the perfect backdrop for a dog of her distinction. A canvas for the poodle devotee, the collector of whimsical dog portraits, or anyone who believes their dog deserves a seat at the table. Preferably the good chair.

Stitching Tips

• Warm cream, ivory, and off-white threads for the base of her coat — keep it soft and luminous
• Warm grey, taupe, and mushroom threads for the spotted markings — vary the tone slightly for a natural, textured look
• Dark charcoal and near-black for the nose, eyes, and outline detail — precision here brings the face to life
• Bright white for the eye highlight — small but essential
• Powder blue, sky blue, and soft cornflower threads for the chair stripes — smooth and even for a crisp, tailored finish
• Cream or warm white for the alternating chair stripes — a clean contrast that lets the blue sing
• Warm amber, honey, and golden brown threads for the wood chair frame — smooth and polished
• Rich cobalt and royal blue threads for the accent pillow — bold and saturated, the perfect pop of color
• Dark navy or charcoal for the chair outline and detail — keep it crisp and graphic
