A “Just Married” wedding getaway car needlepoint canvas, designed as a joyful keepsake for newlyweds, brides, grooms, and anyone celebrating a love story in motion. With its classic wedding car, trailing ribbons, and celebratory details, this canvas captures the moment just after the vows — when the couple drives away into the beginning of everything.
The wedding getaway car has long symbolized romance, good luck, and the first shared adventure of married life. Whether finished as framed wedding wall art, a ring-bearer pillow, or a decorative keepsake for a first home, this design turns a fleeting wedding-day moment into something lasting, personal, and beautifully nostalgic.
A lovely engagement gift, bridal shower gift, wedding gift, anniversary gift, or keepsake for a bride-to-be. Especially charming for couples who love classic weddings, vintage cars, garden receptions, coastal celebrations, and traditional romantic details.

Kitting Your Canvas
At Pierrepont, we offer three thread lines, each with its own character
DMC Pearl Cotton
Our standard kit features DMC's beloved long-staple Egyptian cotton, trusted by needleworkers for generations. With over 500 colors — the widest palette available — every subtle variation in your design is matched with precision, so the richness of each canvas truly comes through. DMC is also the most cost-effective option, making it an especially wonderful choice for beginners and anyone building a collection.
Pepper Pot Silk
Our silk kit graces your canvas with Pepper Pot Silk from Planet Earth Fibers, a single strand of pure silk with a shine that surpasses most of its silk counterparts. Each of its 285 colors is dyed by hand, holding a tonal depth no machine-dyed thread can offer, and its lustrous coverage lends your finished piece the soft gleam of satin. Durable and effortless in hand, it is beloved by beginners and expert needleworkers alike.
Radiance Metallic
Our metallic kit features Radiance from The Meredith Collection, a high-sheen thread with a smooth, softly twisted hand. Across its classic and jewel palettes, the shimmer lives in the thread itself — radiance glimmers the way candlelight does and glides through 18-mesh canvas without the coiling that gives metallics their reputation. Radiance is the choice for holiday canvases and celebration pieces, or for any needleworker who wants their finished work to catch the light.
New to Needlepoint?
Needlepoint looks intricate, and at heart it is simple: a canvas, a needle, a few threads, and a rhythm you will find sooner than you expect.
Every Pierrepont kit arrives with everything you need to begin — hand-selected threads, a printed color key, and a needle sized to your canvas.
Whether you are beginning or returning after years away, this is where it starts.
Terms 101
Needlepoint has a quiet vocabulary of its own. Mesh count is the number of holes to the inch: the higher the number, the finer the canvas and the smaller the finished detail. Eighteen mesh is our most common, and it holds fine painterly work beautifully.
The design size is the stitched area itself. The canvas size is the whole piece of mesh you receive, including the bare margin around the design, which your finisher needs in order to block and construct the piece.
Choosing Your Thread
We offer three thread lines, and the choice is less about difficulty than about the character you want the finished piece to have.
DMC Pearl Cotton is the classic: over five hundred colors, wonderfully forgiving, and the most economical way to build a collection. Pepper Pot Silk is hand-dyed and lustrous, and lends a finished piece the soft gleam of satin. Radiance Metallics catch the light the way candlelight does, and are the choice for holiday and celebration canvases.
Every kit arrives with a printed color key, so nothing is left to guesswork.
When the Last Stitch Is Done
A worked canvas is not yet a finished object. Blocking returns the piece to true, and construction turns it into the thing it was always meant to be — an ornament, a pillow, a stocking, a small stand-up for a shelf.
Send us your canvas and we will do that work for you, and post the finished piece home to you. Please leave at least two inches of bare canvas on every side; there is no need to trim, press, or block the piece yourself.
