The Oxford Company – Punch Needle Perfection

If you’re curious about punch needle embroidery, there’s one name that stands above the rest: The Oxford Company.

And here at McIntosh, we’re delighted to say we stock all of The Oxford Company products – yes, the complete range – and we ship them worldwide!

Why The Oxford Company?

The Oxford Punch Needle was designed by Amy Oxford herself, a leading teacher and pioneer of modern punch needle embroidery. With a background in rug hooking and a passion for making the craft accessible, Amy created a tool that is simple, ergonomic, and a joy to use. No gimmicks – just beautifully designed tools that do exactly what they promise.
