Thank you for this video! Just right.
You did an excellent job on that pillow. I learned so much. I like the way you work not to fast not too slow. Many thanks. K
New sub here. SO impressive!! I'm about to do my first needlepoint and really appreciate your videos.
Could I sew the lining onto the canvas prior to binding the two sides of the canvas together?
/do you think that would be harder or easier to do it that way versus how you tucked in the liner using the method in this video? I’m using silk as my liner material and am nervous to begin the finishing process, as this would be my first project I’m self finishing and don’t want to mess up my needlepoint work!
@@tlcgal95 i found that it makes the edges bulkier and harder to hide your mechanics with cording. But you can give it a shot! It m8ght work for you.🙂
What kind of foam core do you use?
Just because someone knows something doesn't make them a good teacher. That's the case with me. Thank you for sharing this information!
You are so welcome!
Where can I buy the lid
I googled metal jewelry box hinge....I think. Most come with the needlepoint canvas.
Great job
You are so generous with your amazing talent. I am learning so I can finish my daughters pieces. Thank you
What is the interfacing you are using on the fabric?
Shape flex 101 pellon available online and in store at most fabric stores 😊
Taunt means making fun of someone. Taught is hold something tightly.
I got it. It is a little nerve wracking making your first videos. But thank you for the vocabulary correction.😊
@susanl4198 actually it’s spelled “taut” 😊
@@mrshert Yep, you're write...oops, I mean right.
I admire your ambition and attention to detail! I'm afraid if someone begged me to finish a pillow with a border like this, it would be four strips with seams.
how are you not burning your fingers with that hot glue?
What do you charge for finishing an Easter egg ornament ?
Hi Millie, I only finish through needleoint stores and only my designs. If it is one of my easter band ornaments, contact your favorite needlepoint store and they can give you a price. Sorry I can't give you a more precise answer! 😊
Nice work. What is the cost to have an Easter egg made into an ornament
Hi! New to needlepoint and finishing. I have finished a couple of things, looking to do a clutch I stitched. On the back fabric, I know you add an interface, but do you also have a lining on the back fabric, it looks like there is a white fabric stuck to it. Thanks! Love you're channel very helpful!
The lining only has fusible sf101 shape flex interfacing. 😊
@@starkeart Thank you! One last question, do you make your own cording or do you purchase it somewhere?
@@Winslowsquared I always make it. Only way to control the size and color match.😃
I can't tell you how thankful I am for all of your videos. It can be VERY difficult to get finishing advice/instructions, let alone such a detailed set of tutorials. You are making needlepoint and needlepoint finishing accessible to so many people. You have my endless gratitude!!!!
Videos like this help me understand the cost of finishing. So labor intensive. Beautiful work!
I'm curious, you use the hot glue for turning in the waste and securing it. Could you use the Beacon Fabric Tac instead and clip it while it drys? Thank you for posting these!
Clips dent the stitching on the needlepoint. They shouldn't be used. It risks damaging the stitching sadly.
Your videos are WONDERFUL! You're so helpful and relaxing. I also have a new love for DOLL NEEDLES thanks to you! <3 Thank you so much!!!
You are welcome! I am so glad they help you!
Great video. Thank you so very much for sharing this.
Kelly- Are you using the 1/8” foam core?
Yes😊
A supplies list at the beginning would be great! Thanks
It is on my website www.starkeartdesigns.com
This is exactly what I wanted to know! Thank you!
This is another great video!
Oh my gosh! as always, this is a great video!!!! I have been wondering how to do this for ages. Thank you!!!!!
When I hot glue the snips of backing fabric to the foamboard back, the interfacing and backing fabric separate due to the heat from the glue gun.
The heat puts them back together.
Sorry. I found the answer to my question farther down in the comments.
Oh my goodness, I should have watched this before I finished my ornament today! Thanks for the great information. Mine will look good if your on a galloping horse 😀🤣
It gets easier everytime you do it!!!
Are you still doing zoom classes?
I may through the winter, I will post youtube if I do!
Okay! I would love to sign up for one or pay for a private class. Thank you!
Could you use clips instead of pins
I don't use clips on needlepoint because i don't want to flatten stitches. Great tool for quilting but needlepoint not so much.
Thank you so much! this was amazing! and yes you are an expert in window panning!
When you are working on a clutch - what types of fiber do you recommend?
To stitch the piece? You can stitch it with whaterver you like to work with. Ask your local shop though, because silk ans ivory does like to pill and for things you handle alot it can be a issue. I had one person who regretted using overdyed fibers because a person spilled their drink at the table and a few drops splashed the black of a albino tiger stripe makingthe black bleed into the white. She was devastated, first time she had used it. My thought was, WHAT WAS IN THAT DRINK!😬
Great video, but a little slower would be helpful.
Best video ever!
What are your thoughts on glueing the cording rather than sewing - I would love to glue only? Is there a reason you glued one side and sewed the other cording? Thank you - great videos!
Glue cording to both sides using fabritac. I was just showing sewing to people that want to sew and that it is fine to glue as long as you use the right product.
Can you tell me what width of foam board you use?
1/8th you get it in the framing department at Micheals or loose matte board/foam core section at hobby lobby. If you buy online it may come too thick as some of the amazon vendors don't know the difference. Just make sure you can get free return shipping.😊
This may be a silly question but do you use a special type of scissor to cut canvases from the roll?
I use standard 8 inch blade scissors. My nip scissors take forever to cut with and are a pain for that job.😂
Question, why do you count the stitches out versus tracing the image using the template as an underlay for the canvas? I’m new to this hobby. I’ve seen people tracing and counting-is it just personal preference or is there a science behind your method?
This is one of a series that have the same height and distance between lettering. So I designed it on the computer so i only have to edit the specs.
@@starkeart thank you for your response.
Followed all the way through so relaxing and peaceful. Thank you for sharing. 😊
This is what I use to make the net. 36 in. lengths for main part of net. Let me know if you need more help! hemptique.com/collections/hemp-cord/products/hemp-cord-spool-variegated-10
@@starkeart thank you. Have a great holiday.
Can you add additional beads on the end row?
No rules, go for it!
What size thread and how long?
Finally found you. What is length of string. Making a 1 to 12 and 1/2 scale. Thank you
For the netting I make, (not sure of scale to real net) i use 36in folded in half to start.
OMG! This is a fantastic tutorial…thank you! It took my local needlepoint shop six months to finish my last project (they told me there are so few people in the country who still know how to do finishing work that it really slows the process down). Not sure if that is true or not, but I decided rather than wait that long again, I would give finishing a shot. I managed to complete a decent looking Christmas ornament, and now I am going to try to finish an eyeglasses case. You have given me the confidence to give it a go! Thank you.
That is awesome!!! Message if you need help!
Did you manage to finish your eyeglass case? I’m working on one now and would appreciate any advice/tips!
So helpful. Thank you.
Bless your heart for thinking it was a bee and an initial! 🤍😘 I always thought it was a cute/cheeky way of saying bull poop lolol aka BS! Maybe just shows where my mind is 😜
Lol, I try to not get in trouble with censors.😁💗😉 But it took my adult children to really que me in after it was posted.🤣
If you had a thicker, jacquard fabric.. do you think you’d be able to just wrap the edge of the insulation with the fabric using darts and glue?
Probably! It would just make it almost a inch thick.😊 Give it a shot and let me know how it works out!
Thank you for sharing your mistakes. Also I love the fuzziness of the yarn in your cording. It adds a nice dimension to your project
I have never used a curved needle, but I’m going to start. This video was very helpful. Do you have a favorite size or brand of needle? I saw a variety of sizes and prices on Amazon. Where do you get the rubber tips for your fingers? My first finishing project left a lot of cracks in my thumb.
