Would you like some cross stitch finishing ideas?
I hope you like my embroidered covered box with accessories, including needlebook, scissor fob and bottle cap pincushion, the box was supposed to be part of an exchange but I got glue on the fabric and it shows so I decided to start again and make something else, of course I made sure on the next project that I did not get glue everywhere!

I used DMC thread number 833 in this design, there are swarovski crystals on the scissor fob and I have put a small butterfly closing on the needlebook.
I loved finishing this embroidered strawberry scissor fob
I show how to finish a strawberry over on my cross stitch finishing blog, see the link below.

Its ok to get glue on stuff…you aint gluing right if you don't!!!! It's stunning and part of the fun of making things yourself.
Congrats on the great finishes Lynn.
