Snowdrift Table Runner - finishing directions!

All of your snowflakes are in place and it's time to wrap this project up.

I hope you have had a fun time stitching up these snowflakes with me.  

May this stitchery be a treasure to add to your winter table decor for years to come!

Step 1

Trim away the excess wool leaving about 3/8" extra past the edge of the snowflakes.  This will be hidden by the trim so if your cutting isn't perfect that's OK!  Take a close look at mine and you'll feel better.

Step 2

We will now use the rest of the Sulky12wt thread and the chenille yarn to trim around the table runner.  

Leave a 1" tail when you start your whipstitches.  You will overlap the two ends about 1/2", trimming away the extra chenille trim, and secure them in place with whip stitches.

A whipstitch is a very easy stitch.  Simply stitch through the wool wrapping the thread over the chenille trim. The nice thing about this chenille trim is that it's so fluffy the thread is hidden easily!
