I love the idea of stuffing the corners with yarn! That`s alot more “workable” than trying to wad stuffing in there - am going to try this the next time! Enjoyed this video - thanks!
Hi Helen. Thanks so much for all your tutorials. The videos are straight forward and easy to follow. As a non-sewer, I feel I could actually attempt finishing things. I do have trouble seeing everything your doing because the area your working in is a little dark. Maybe it's my old eyes. I think if there were so additional lighting, I could better see everything your doing more easily. Thanks for the great tutorial and have a great, stitchy day!
Thank you. Loved the tutorial because you taught an old lady some new tricks-like how to sew the pompoms on instead of gluing. I like them sewn much better even if it takes more time. Also like how you ironed the almost finished pillow to flatten it a bit. I’m going to do that to pillows I’ve already made to see if it makes them less lumpy.
Thanks so much for the tutorial. I am a beginner with my grandmother’s sewing machine and your video has helped me make the most perfect pillow finish for my Easter cross stitch. Perfect for a beginner like me 😊
Helen I use 14 count Aida and DMC yarn and a I do not sew tight but it dosen,'t always cover. I looked at yours and your stitches are perfect. I love all of your tutorials
Great tutorial! I absolutely loved this video, but I always enjoy yours.Your little pillow is cute as can be. I want to stitch everything you do. I'm gonna have to order that pattern now. Thanks so much for sharing.
Excellent tutorial Helen. If you have fancy stitches on your sewing machine you could use them as well to decorate the seam line. I will have to try the 950f interfacing. My favorite stuffing was a big box of upholstery batt that I had. But when we moved across the country I gave almost all of it away. I've been hoarding a little bag full to stuff little felt critters.
Great fabric find in your stash to coordinate with the stitched design! It turned out so cute - your pillows always are! Thanks for showing how you stitched on the pom pom trim; I will need to order some so I can give it a try! And great tip about ironing the pillow once it's been stuffed - not too plump or too flat but perfect!
Helen, I am new to your videos. I am excited to follow your instructions for this finishing.I am subscribe and will check out previous videos and look forward to future videos. Thanks for sharing!❤
I just got a Brother machine too and I’m practicing before I make a pillow 😂 I’ve discovered I’m a ways away from binding. This seems a little closer to my level❤
Loved this tutorial! I finished a small pillow like yours ! I love that folded fabric accent! I used a fancy stitch on my machine instead of doing the X's ! I posted on IG !
Hi Helen, thanks so much for another inspiring and informative tutorial. I really appreciate you taking the time to make these videos. You have a fantastic eye for finishing ❤️
Thank you for the tutorial. I've done plenty of sewing when I was younger, but it was pretty exclusively making clothes. Believe it or not, I've been a bit intimidated by anything beyond the basic pillow finish with a front piece and a back piece. I've also never known the trick with the pom poms. I've always stitched them into the seams and struggled to keep them straight. This will be much easier I think!
Excellent tutorial! Gives me many ideas for finishing and I’m lucky enough to have a machine with decorative stitches! Thanks so much for the freebies. I’ve stitched the Easter one and love stitching words!
You can sew pompoms onto front piece. Use zipper foot and it will guide along the pompom edging. Then sew front back and still leave opening on the bottom .
Oh my gosh! That was wonderful and very clear direction! I have been stitching projects to make a few pillows but have not been brave enough to try! Guess what I will be doing soon!!
That’s a very cute finish! Thanks for doing another clear and concise tutorial. I haven’t tried pom poms yet, so this was good! Thanks for the tip about Lindy Stitches. I’ll check hers out, too. 🤗
Great tutorial! If someone wants to get a little more detailed (and fun!), the decorative stitches could be little chicken tracks wandering around. Love your work, very inspiring.
i dont mean to be offtopic but does any of you know a trick to get back into an instagram account?? I was stupid lost the login password. I love any assistance you can give me
@Waylon Josiah Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im trying it out now. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
finishing really is an art in and of itself! Your pieces turn out amazing! I just ordered some finishing items from Lady Dot so I am excited to try some small pillows soon! I had no idea that pom pom trim was hand sewn on. I'm going to need to find a tutorial to see how the chanelle is attached to pillows ...

The machine stitches are a great idea!
Great tutorial! Very helpful too! Always enjoy your videos.
Love it! Thank you so much, Helen!!!
Just the cutest! Great tutorial! Love the pastel fabric choices that made this pillow “Pop!” Or, should I say, “Peep!?” 😊❤️🐣
Thanks, Helen. Great tutorial.

Hand stitching the poms takes longer, but I think it makes it easier to get them where you want them. :)
@@helend.flosstube It probably doesn't take much longer.. keeping the edging in the seam and straight can be pretty fiddly! :)
Thank you for a great tutorial was a great help as I am just learning finishing!!
Great tutorial. I learned so much. Thank you!
Thank you. I really appreciate your doing these tut’s for us

Thanks Helen, great tips about "poms and tails" I've had gaps before and your technique was like a light bulb 💡😄
Heads up. I'm binge watching your channel. Just finished number 4. I'll try to keep my comments short. 😌
That's a scary thought, I bet those early videos are rough! :)
Excellent tutorial! Gives me many ideas for finishing and I’m lucky enough to have a machine with decorative stitches! Thanks so much for the freebies. I’ve stitched the Easter one and love stitching words!

Thanks for the tip, I"m always learning too! I tried this with ric rac yesterday and it worked great!

Fat Quarter shop has a couple that they just glue on. Not sure if this creator does/ some similar ❤
Did you sew around each pop or spread out a few. This is a great tutorial. It makes me think I can do it, but I will be doing it by hand. Thank you.
I sewed around each pom, over the little tail that connects them.
Very cute. Did you ever try sewing the pompom trim in place when you sew it together. When you turn it to the right side...it is done.
I haven't tried that. Do you need to sew all the way around and cut a hole in the back to turn it? I've never made a pillow that way.
