I am so glad I follow your floss tube! You are a wonderful teacher in how to finish cross-stitch projects! You make the process so easy to follow! You are a blessing to our cross-stitch community! I just got this pattern and can’t wait to start it! Yours is beautiful! ❤

Thank-you Helen for an amazing tutorial, you make such easy to follow videos, your finishing is lovely.

Your tutorials are SO GOOD!!!! Thank you for all you teach us and share with us--such a gift!

Awesome Video Helen. So much easier to think about doing this yourself when you have this tutorial to watch. Thanks for sharing your great ideas.

Beautiful stitching! Thank you so much for the excellent tutorial! You are always so generous and kind! ♥️🌹

Thanks so much for sharing this ffo. I love how detailed you are. Your work is so beautiful and inspiring.

Thank you for this great tutorial. Appreciate all your hard work filming this

Thank you SO MUCH for this! I have so many pieces stitched I just did not know how to finish. I'm encouraged now!

You have the best tutorials, easy to follow. I have learned so much, thank you.

Thank you so much for showing us how you frame this piece. They both look great. Now I need to frame mine. Lol.

Thank you as always Helen, I so much appreciate your awesome tutorials, and I love that you share the fact that you too interchange your pieces and use the same frame, it makes so much sense and saves money and room when storing pieces that you are not displaying!

Thank you so much Helen for an awesome tutorial on finishing. Beautiful piece!

I so appreciate you and your finishing tutorials. The finishes are so beautifully done but so much less intimidating than some tutorials. I don’t stitch heirloom pieces, everything I do is just for me. Thanks! 🪡🧵✂️

Love these designs. They are beautiful. Love the finish especially with the cording. Now I am going to need to purchase! More stash.😊

As always, I learn something new from you! I will definitely be stitching these in the future and love the style of finish. 💖✨

I love how you did this. And I so needed to see exactly how you did it. Thank you.

Wonderful tutorial, Helen. Thank you for sharing your expertise with us.

Thank you for sharing your technique for finishing in the frame today...will certainly use this method

Thankyou so much for sharing, you make it look so easy.I love your work and finishes. I’m busy going through your previous posts as I’m a recent subscriber from the uk. I think it may take me sometime. Love the sound of the clock on this post.

Helen, it is nicely finished. Thank you 😊

Very Pretty. Thanks for the tutorial. I pinch my corners vs sewing them, but trim does help 😀 I use a popsicle stick to smooth out glue. Great to know about her fabric line, love these bird chart designs. Great Job!!!

Thank you so much for showing us how to finish a cross stitch piece. Your videos are so easy to follow. I can not wait to try this out on my pieces.

I love this stitch, you did a beautiful job. Your tutorials alway give me confidence and inspiration. I can’t thank you enough.

I haven't started mine yet, but I'm itching to!

These are such beautiful patterns! I haven’t done them yet, after seeing yours and your finishings, I can’t wait! I’m concurrently finishing 2 other very large projects, hopefully I will be nearing the end by the year end to start these 2. I may start them anyway! 😊😊

I just love watching your floss tubes and your voice is very calming. You definitely have a ‘teacher’ quality! Thank you for showing how you tie a thread at the end of the cording to keep it from falling apart! Thank you for being in this awesome community of stitchers! ❤

Omgoodness Helen your an amazing finisher. So easy and fast.

Thank you! Great tutorial!

Thank you. I appreciate the time it takes to make tutorials!!

Great tutorial! I am going to attempt to frame a piece. Will let you know how it goes. Thanks.

Thank you so much for the great tutorial! What glue gun do you use? Is it a cool touch one? I always end up burning my fingers! You are right Aileen’s is so hard to squeeze out but it holds good! Love how you put the cording on and how you hide the knot! Thanks again!

Good tutorial! ❤

Helen, thank you so much for your tutorials. They have helped me finally finish some cross stitch projects. A couple of hours ago I visited the Crafty Grimalkin in Bangor. Yes, I spent $ 😊 Have you seen the Mill Hill Moose? Had to buy it.

Best tutorial. Very clear and easy to follow. Love the tips on the corners. I noticed that you did not interface the stitched piece. Is this because it’s not linen? TFS.

@helend.flosstube

I usually only interface if it's a finish that I'm sewing. I don't want to snap a stitch when I'm stuffing.

Hi Helen. Thanks for your tutorials...very much appreciated. What type of glue are you using. It is cold as you do not seem to be burning your fingers. Keep on teachingnyour valuable knowledge. Carol

It's just regular hot glue. My fingers are probably just used to the burns by now. 😂

Helen I loved this video You’re a talented person. I have a cross stitch humming bird piece that I’ll be trying this method except for the battingI don’t have any. I can’t think of what other material I could use as batting Does it really matter?I planed to just use the sticky mat board then use your method of gluing.

@helend.flosstube

It's harder to make adjustments directly on the sticky board to get it centered. Even something like a piece of craft felt would help. 😊
