GATHER ROUND – FINISHING TUTORIAL

March 26, 2024 By Cathy Habermann 2 Comments

Gather Round Series – Gather Wildflower, Gather Butterflies, Gather Pumpkins & Gather Pinecones

 

Thank you for purchasing the ‘Gather Round’ charts!

I have included the original tutorial here as it was 1st presented in the Gather Round club. I plan to post a finishing tutorial in a video/FlossTube format as well so I can talk about the different vehicle for this finish (Perpetual Paddles from Chantelle’s 141 Design Studio vs the original slate round). This tutorial was ready 1st & since I suspect some of you are ready for it, I figured that I’d better post it!

You can print your tutorial here: Gather Round

For a quick reference, you will need:

  • 4″ round matboard circles (I will be posting kits with these for sale on the website 4/1/24)
  • batting (I like Warm & Natural)
  • Double Sided Acid free Stitchery tape (I sell it here on the website if your shop doesn’t have it)
  • Rick Rack from Lady Dot Creates
  • Perpetual Paddles from Chantelle’s 141 Design Studios
  • 1/2″ wide x 1/8″ deep neodymium magnets
  • usual supplies – rotary cutter, scissors, rulers, etc.
  • Thank you & Enjoy the Finish!

    I’ve searched your YouTube channel for the finishing tutorial for Gather round but can’t find it. Can you send me a link, please?

      I realize that I said there would be a FlossTube tutorial. I posted the step by step tutorial on the website & then basically, got busy with new designs & projects. The static tutorial walks you through every step & can be found on my website.
