I will list all the appraisers who appear to have needlepoint experience I've heard about here, in alphabetical order.
Cindy Lee Gershin is Needlework Appraisal. Here is her website.
Cindy did an interview with Fiber Talk about judging and appraising needlework. She's certified in all these areas. This is a two part interview. The first is Cindy talking about judging needlework, what judges look for, how to improve your stitching with competition in mind, etc.
