I don’t know about you but I often think about stitching a needlepoint belt. It’s never gotten much past the thinking stage, largely because I worry about finishing. The folks at Bobbin & Stitch in the UK have it worse — there are few finishers of needlepoint belts there.
They took matters into their own hands and stitched a belt from plastic canvas and finished it themselves. The illustrated tutorial has all the details.
Thanks to Jane from Chilly Hollow for letting us know about this great article.
