Tutorial: pinkeep finishing

Описание: This tutorial will teach you how to finish a pinkeep with magnetic interior to hold pins and needles, with ribbon ties and a contrast lining.

I am demonstrating on the spring Tiny Treasures kit, Stacy Nash's Feathered Nest pinkeep, which will be released on May 7 at 8:15 AM PDT at katie-strachan.com/shop but the technique is equally suitable for many other charts. I have used the same method on Stacy Nash's I Will Cut You pinkeep (full details below materials list)

Needed for this tutorial:
Cardstock or bristol paper for lining
Mat board for exterior
Felt to pad the mat board
Mistyfuse or similar double faced interfacing to bond the lining/cardstock
Lining fabric - I'm using Liberty Lawn here but any fabric you have in stash will work
Strong magnets - I've used 1/8 x 1/16 inch rare earth magnets
Tacky glue to glue your felt padding
Your stitched piece, prepared for finishing
Ribbon for finishing, at least 27 inches - I recommend the 7mm width of River Silks ribbon - I had said in the video that NIAH carried this, but it appears that's no longer the case. There are a lot of sources on google if you search River Silks ribbon though.
Silk or cotton sewing thread for finishing
Fine pins
Fine finishing needles, I used a #10 milliners needle and curved beading needle

Sources:
Silk thread: I used Kinkame 50 weight thread, color 93 for lacing. Britex carries the full line of Kinkame, which is a truly fabulous thread for finishing: https://britexfabrics.com/collections....
For the stitching I used Soie Surfine #2142, which is a near perfect color match to the linen, Legacy Linen 38 count Fuller's Teazel

#10 milliners needles and curved beading needles can both be purchased from Needle in a Haystack

Details on my previous finish of Stacy Nash's I Will Cut You pinkeep, as seen in this video (previously shown in episode 51):
Stitched on Legacy Linen 38 count Brewer's Malt with Gobelins 061, Surfine 2061 for the over 1 with a #12 short tapestry point beading needle
The ribbon used is River Silks 7mm color #70
And I lined it with Liberty London Lodden, blue colorway

I owe a great deal to Vonna's wonderful finishing tutorials and can't recommend them highly enough. My technique here is largely drawn from her tutorial on finishing a round flat ornament:    • Видео
