A needlework blocking apparatus includes an inner continuous board of a pressed fiber board or the like, which readily receives and holds conventional straight pins, headed-tacks or the like. An outer cover enclosure unit includes front and back wall covers which are interconnected along the perimeter by conventional sewing. The one cover is imprinted with blocking indicia including concentric squares and circles of different sizes as well as radial lines for proper locating of the needlepoint piece. The covers are formed of a napped 100 DEG cotton fabric for absorbing and holding sufficient moisture required for professional pressing and blocking needlework. A crush-proof inner cushion pad of polyurethene foam is bonded to the inner surface of the napped cotton working cover to define a soft cushioned working surface. The needlework piece is secured with the finished face abutting the soft cushioned working surface. Where desired, a wet pressing cloth is placed over the affixed piece and an iron moved thereover.
