Raksha Report post Posted June 15, 2018 Ok, I am rather proud of the stitching here, its my second ever project involving stitching, and the first one was a dog collar and, well - lets not talk about that one. So here goes! I know its not perfect, but still. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rockoboy Report post Posted June 17, 2018 If I want a simple edge finish, I use a little water and a burnishing stick, roller, bone folder etc. If the edge is a little bit more difficult to burnish, I use some beeswax, pure gum turpentine and lanolin mix and a piece of canvas to burnish the edge. I have tried a small amount of water then glycerine soap on a edge, that came up really nice, but I am still working on that option to see how it performs with edge paint, dye, antique or a sharpie.
