welcome to east coast punch needle art!
My name is Annette Lewis and I love creating punch needle art that is whimsical, colourful and reflects my love of the east coast.
Inspiration comes to me from the white sandy beaches, the tiny rural communities and the changing scenery that the ocean provides.
This is where I grew up and I’m lucky to live by iconic landmarks that mean so much to Nova Scotians and East Coasters everywhere.
There are many common themes that are featured in my artwork from photo-bombing animals, to icebergs and the nostalgia for a time that was less stressful and more relaxed. I hope the simple calmness comes across in my artwork for you to enjoy!
east coast punch needle art Designs & Commissions
I typically only have a few pieces for sale at one time as most people choose to commission their own piece of artwork.
Others like a particular design I have completed before, but want something similar with minor changes.
are you looking for patterns for your punch needle, rug hooking or other crafts?
I am creating digital PDF patterns for download that you can purchase and print from my online store.
These patterns are based off of my punch needle designs. They are ideal for other creative people to use in their own craft projects.
Nice things people have said about my work
Annette custom made this stunning piece of the life cycle of a dandelion for me. We talked about colour and layout…. she’s awesome! I absolutely love it!! And it’s textured too!!!
Love our Punch Needle piece! We got it for a gift for our son on the west coast and he will love it as well. It is a wonderful reminder for him of the Atlantic and our life and love for the ocean here , and created by a friend, even better. Beautifully and colorfully done! Thank you Annette!
These original works of art make me so happy!! The only problem is now I can’t decide where to hang them because no matter where I try them they brighten the space and give me joy. What a wonderful dilemma to have!
