  • In today's video, Kimberly shows how to do this cute cross stitch band finish on a spool! All you need is some cute fabric, interfacing, and of course a cute spool. Because the band is longer, there is no lacing, and she shows you how to pin or drape it to style it. The band is part of the Tea House cross stitch pattern, which is the first design from Lori Holt's Home Town Neighborhood series. Let us know what you think of this cute little finish and what other finishings you'd like to see!
    The winners from the Spool Finishing premiere are Wendy Neal, Gloria Urrea and Angie Hinton.

    Darling finish! I'll try using the Fat Quarter Shop Alphabet pattern to stitch the name of each of my three daughters-in-law and FFO on a spool as a gift.

    Love the finish. There are only so many wall pieces we can display. This has such possibilities.

  • @periwinklestitcher
    @periwinklestitcher 11 місяців тому

    The finish is adorable and very useful given that I have so many spools and don't know what to do with them! I would love to see you make a journal cover with a finished piece!

    @nancy-katharynmcgraw2669 11 місяців тому +1

    This finishing looks wonderful!
    Just wondering if the backing could be a wide, colorful ribbon, instead of cotton fabric?
    Very nice touch, to display the X-STITCH, it has a small "footprint ", so it would not take up much space.
    I could see threading the finished Spools, on a thin enough long dowel, and X-STITCH draped, and hung on a wall with twine tied to each end. Ok, maybe a bow & a few tiny buttons, too?.

    Loved this! So cute! I would like to see more finishing that doesn’t require a sewing machine or an alternative way to finish for those of us who do not sew. ☺️

    Enjoyed the tutorial. Great idea for the spools. Years ago I put sm square designs on blocks of wood about the size of children’s ABC blocks. Fringed the edges and just glued them on however many sides I wanted. Get Denise to work on that. I can send pic if you would like. 38+ years ago when first started stitching.

    Love the spool project. I would like to see a pillow finishing using a piping trim. Also crosstitch finished in a cone shape like a strawberry or ice cream cone. And a smaller crosstitch framed in a wooden frame with a mat and behind glass. Thank you so much for your wonderful tutorials.

    Wow, Kimberley, your talents really showed through on this video. I know how it is to deal with an opening along a seam and you were so talented to use the stitch witchery. I feel like I would be really fumbling but you were perfect. It’s a cute project.

    I love the finishing, such a small thing to gift 'just because'. I would love to see other vintage type finishes, and also offset finishes, such as a small cross stitched item to one side of a rectangular board with room to the side for maybe hand lettering a sentiment to go with the stitchery. Most every finish I've viewed are centered. Thank you.

    Great tutorial on how to finish a design on a spool. I also loved that it showed how you can take a design from a pattern and change how you can stitch some of the pattern. I would love to see finishes made into larger pillows and maybe added to a quilt that is used for decoration. I think making bookmarks would be fun too, just unsure on how to go about making them.

    I love this finish! I could see using small holiday designs on the spool and putting them in stockings, on the tree, etc. Or a happy birthday greeting on a spool instead of a card….tons of fun stuff could be done with these.

  • @marlenecollier8979
    @marlenecollier8979 11 місяців тому

    Thanks for the creative finishing tutorial. I would like to learn how to flat finish with a hinge so the piece will stand up by itself, little pillows, something with a fabric border, flat finish attached to anything like an old book, wood cube, wood plaque, etc. also, anything you guys come up with. I noticed in the short teasing Stitching with the Housewives at Nashville Needle Market, Priscilla used something like a key ring to hang the flat finished pieces on little ladders. That would be fun to do. Have a great week!
