Thank you so much for going into detail about how to do this!! You made it seem possible for me to do. You got me stitching again after 25 years, so learning how to do finishes is so, so needed. Thank you!!
Thank you so very much! I just started stitching the 1st of a 3 small pillow set. I want to finish them & put them in this gold cut glass large “bowl” on a pedestal that I was my mother in law’s before she passed away. I never knew about cross stitch pillow decor until watching you. Now I have a project that I will enjoy working on & then it will be part of a special dining room table centerpiece. So happy I found you as my card making TH-cam friend & then stitching TH-cam friend! Blessings ❤
Just love how your autumn pillow turned out--the back fabric and chenille colors are perect with the colors in your threads. I believe everyone who does hand work has days when your hands work magic and everything you stitch is beautiful and days when your hands are totally clutzy [sp?] and you stitch as if you only have thumbs. Those days maybe we should clean our house? Your work in each of your crafts is wonderful. Enjoy the finished products without pointing out any flaws; after all if you wanted machine work you would have bought them instead of made them.
I love your pillow tutorials they seem so easy when you walk us through. I have a piece I want to turn into a little pillow for a friend and I think I’ll be able to do it❤🎉
I absolutely love these!! I've never sewn anything before and I am completely inspired to do a pillow finish once I get some cross stitching done. So thankful for this tutorial because it makes it feel so much less intimidating to try out now. Thanks so much Nichol!!
Hi Nichol, you are such a great teacher, weater it is card making, stitching or sewing i always learn so much from you🥰🙏🏻 love the finish of your cross stitch, thanks to you and this video i am for sure going to try and make my first pillow. Thanks for always sharing all your creativity, you always brighten my day with all your content💗😘
Your pillow turned out so cute. You mentioned Pom Pom trim and that is what I want to use. So, yes I would love a Pom Pom trim tutorial. Thank you Nichole for the time you spent with us. Sharing your techniques. And I learned so much from you. I just have a little more to stitch and then I be making my pillow. ❤️
I’ve got my Welcome Autumn Stitched and just sat with my Morning coffee and watched your tutorial video. I love starting my day with any Nichol Spohr video!! I cannot wait to transform this darling piece to a pillow. Thank you so much for all of your work in putting this SAL on and training us newbie stitchers. This was so much fun!
Oh my goodness! 😍😍😍 I am dying over those pillows! I would have never thought to use a slip stitch to attach the chenille - it looks fantastic! So, so adorable! You are so clever. I can't wait to see the pom-pom finish!!
Caught some of this live and some replay. I learned a lot. I never did a ladder stitch before, the knot you use, or a quarter inch foot. Thank you Nichol for being so kind and generous in sharing your time and talents with us. I love this little project because it was manageable and oh so darling. Can’t wait to see what you have planned for your next SAL. Tomorrow I’m going to make my pillow. 😀
Thank you! I definitely want to try this….I think it will be so cute in little pillows. Have a little one planned next to pull into my rotation. Appreciate all the Time you put into this for all of us. 🥰
Perfect! Can't wait to get my chenille! Are pompoms sewed on over the seam or into the seam? I always thought that they came on a strip. Of course I have not sewed on pompoms for a very long time! Thanks again for all your time!
Yay! Thank you for the very helpful video. I feel confident I can make these little pillows now. I'm with you about the framing. I don't know who started the alternative finishing for stitching projects but I'm so glad they did! And YES to the video for pom pom trim.
So so beautiful Nichol. Love it. I ordered Hive Rules and can't wait to start it. So love the Bee things from Primrose cottage. To be honest love all things Bees! Lol
I had a gift cross stitch I needed to get framed but when I saw this video, I decided to make it a pillow! Done and done! Hooray!😄

I’m going to have to order some chenille before I finish mine! 😊
I sent mine to the finisher yesterday
TFS Love it!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I LOVE that you are showing us how to finish our pieces!!!
Such a great video. Think I’m brave enough to try it. Will need to find that 1/4 foot. I think that will help me sew a straight line. 😀
that 1/4" foot is a game changer! I can't sew a straight line without it! ;)
Awesome!

It turned out so adorable! I have all the supplies so I can make mine just like this. Thank you so much!

Nichol you have made another great tutorial thank you. Going forward will all your SALs be on Monday nites? Looking forward to the next one.
You explained everything really well, Nichol!
Perfect! Can't wait to get my chenille!
Are pompoms sewed on over the seam or into the seam? I always thought that they came on a strip. Of course I have not sewed on pompoms for a very long time!
Thanks again for all your time!
I use a bone folder as a point turner. I use steam if i only used dmc thread. Anything hand dyed might blead
I have used one as well. Works pretty good!

Thank you, Nichol, for a great tutorial! I have ordered the chenille trim and can’t wait to finish my pillow!! 😊❤
Could you so kindly give the floss color substitution for taffeta on the Jardin Halloween cross stitch project. Tks
I used Taffy instead of Taffeta.
I use 50 wt aurifil to stitch pillows closed amongst other things. Nvr had any problems
