Call the shop to order.  I am assuming that they do both wholesale and retail orders, based on Tony's posting.

Reading the Canvas for Basketweave

Lori at Waste Knot has a short video explaining how mono canvas is woven. This weave enables you to always put the diagonal "up" rows in creating basketweave on the vertical rows and the "down" rdiagonal ows in basketweave on the horizontal rows.

Self Finishing Mezuzah Kits

I've discovered that Susan Roberts sells self-finishing mezuzah kits which Gone Stitching stocks.

The kits come with painted canvas, stitch guide, ultrasuede for finishing and the plastic tube.  They are available in various colors.  If you also need the prayer, ask Gone Stitching.

ViviLux Clip On Light Magnifier

The Labors of Love needlepoint shop has a different style of light magnifier for sale.

BeStitched carries this, too.

It clips onto a table or your stretcher bars.  I don't know how large the magnifier sheet is but the light looks quite small.  I don't know the weight, either, but I'm sure Labors of Love can answer questions.

This may be the same light magnifier.
