  • Recipe for good finishing

    Waste Stitches : Most of us are never clear as to when to add waste stitches to our finished needlepoint project. Waste stitches are needed for pillows or stockings where a welt or trim needs to be sewn on. It is okay to put waste stitches on needlepoint pieces that are to be inserted but it is not required. There is no waste needed on ornaments, eyeglass cases, or scissor cases. If you are not sure, drop by the Gate and we will be happy to advise you if waste stitches are needed for your piece.
