Joan's Best Finishing Tips
Suzie and Joan, our Finishing Manager, answer the questions we get asked the most.
FAQs - The Finishing Edition
How long does finishing take?
These are our best estimates. Your item make take longer and it make come back more quickly. Acrylic Stand Ups
What do you finish?
We finish everything from ornaments to pillows to standups and everything in between. Framing is the only service we do not provide
When do you need finishing rows?
You only need finishing rows when there is an embellishment (beads, ribbons, etc.) within two rows of the edge or a design element right up to the edge.
Unsure - send us an email at finishing@enrichedstitch.com.
Can I stitch outside the lines?
Yes, we ship to many international destinations! Shipping times and fees vary by country. Please check our shipping policy or enter your address at checkout for more details.
How much does finishing cost?
Price is custom for each item. We take a deposit when you submit your item for finishing and send you an invoice for the remaining amount once our finishers complete the item.
Keep in mind - all finishing is done by hand by highly-experienced craftsmen.
Who chooses backing, coding, bows, etc.?
That's entirely up to you. Finisher's Choice means our finishers choose the style, material, and any embellishments.
We enourage you to specify any style requests. You may supply fabric and trim, but the finisher will detemine if these materials will work for your finished item. For example, quilter's cotton works well for backing but stretchy material does not.
