Blocking can sometimes be pretty aggressive in these situations. If the edges of your extra canvas look a little pulled, please be aware this will not impact your finishing and it will be necessary to get your piece as straight as possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePLEASE LET US KNOW the thread types used. Our blocking process is altered based on the thread types used. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf hand-dyed threads are used, there is always a possibility that there will be some bleeding or color transfer, which holds true especially for blues, purples, and reds. But keep in mind hand-dyed treads always run a higher risk that commercially dyed threads. Purchase your threads carefully and consider this when choosing which hand-dyed colors go next to one another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOlder canvases that were stitched long ago or recently using older threads could also have color transfer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Park Avenue Yarns","offers":[{"title":"Extra Small: Up to 5\"","offer_id":45113111904371,"sku":"850009","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Small: Over 5\" to 8\"","offer_id":45113109282931,"sku":"850010","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium: Over 8\" to 12\"","offer_id":45113109315699,"sku":"850011","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large: Over 12\" to 18\"","offer_id":45113109348467,"sku":"850012","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Extra Large: Over 18\" to 24\"","offer_id":45113109381235,"sku":"850013","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Oversized: Over 24\" to 30\"","offer_id":45113113575539,"sku":"850014","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.clothyard.com\/products\/needlepoint-blocking","provider":"The Poppy Point \u0026 Clothyard Fabrics \u0026 Park Avenue Yarns","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
