Valdani Perle Cotton Thread, Czech Glass Beads
We have been having stormy weather for days.
I don't mind one bit...
perfect for drinking tea and stitching.

Punch Needle Embroidery
Often I will complete Punchneedle designs
and then wait until the thought strikes me for
how to finish them. This works for me because I
don't like forcing a finish and not really liking
the outcome.
I love these rich and warm shades of wool
and as soon as I saw them together,
and as soon as I saw them together,
I knew they would work with 'Seaside Fancy'.
The warm honeycomb borders the punchneedle,
while the teal and caramel plaid will cover the pillow.
I am partial to bead work,
however a plain blanket stitch to edge the pillow
would have worked well also.
I like to use Czech Glass Beads, size 6/0,
for finishing edges.
Go to Beaded Blanket Stitch, to learn more.
Punchneedle pillow measures 16in. x 16in.
Both, front and back are covered in wool.
To learn more about finishing into a pillow,
go to Punchneedle Pillow Finish.
There are so many great ways to finish your
punchneedle work. There is no right or wrong way.
Do you have a favorite way to finish ?
Enjoy your day...
