Finishing Elements Tutorials from DMC

November 11, 2011

Tassels and Twisted Cord are two basic elements of finishing. It’s simply fantastic if you can make your own.

Not only can they add lovely custom touches to items you finish yourself, by supplying them, you can also get a bit more control in what the final product may look like. When you make your own, you can incorporate so many different threads to get a unique look.

DMC has posted two wonderful tutorials on their blog. They have lots of photos and step-by-step instructions. Visit them to learn how to:
