I love a beaded edge and posted a little tutorial on how to do it here.
I like all kinds of little toolie things for stitching and posted a little tutorial on how to make pin keeps here. This technique also works well for ornaments.
This isn't my idea, but I like using it to finish an ornament because the front and back are all from one piece.
I made a sampler bag, with a beaded edge and twisted cord edging and explained how to do it here.
I frequently finish ornaments flat and add twisted cord that I make. I posted how to do it here.
Here is how to finish a stitched piece into a little bag.
These are my most common ways to finish things. What are your ideas for finishing needlework?
