• About Us

    Needlepoint For Gays creates modern needlepoint designs for stitchers looking for something fresh, artistic, and different. Founded by artist and lifelong stitcher Lauren Mauldin, NFG blends contemporary aesthetics, LGBTQ+ representation, humor, pop culture, and original artwork into a growing collection of needlepoint canvases and digital designs.

    We partner with brick-and-mortar needlepoint shops across the country that want to offer customers modern, high-quality designs not commonly found in traditional needlepoint collections.

  • Why Carry NFG?

    Our designs are created for stitchers who value:

    • Original artwork and artist-driven design
    • LGBTQ+ representation and inclusivity
    • Contemporary color palettes and modern aesthetics
    • Humor, personality, and cultural relevance
    • Fresh inventory that helps shops stand out


    Needlepoint For Gays offers both hand-painted and StitchPerfect printed canvas options, with a focus on quality production and strong visual design. As we continue scaling production, our wholesale collection is steadily expanding, with additional designs being added to wholesale availability over time.
