How to close a frame and make it look nice

How to close your embroidery frame

The last stitch is not the end, it's the beginning of the closure. When you finish embroidering, it's time to prepare the back of the frame so that everything looks nice and tidy.

You only need a strong thread, a needle, and a little patience: sew around the edge of the fabric with a basting stitch, and gently gather until the fabric folds and collects in the center.

No more is needed. No glue, no tricks. Just thread, hands, and love.
Closing the frame this way gives it a clean and simple finish, ideal for hanging, gifting, or storing. Because finishing an embroidery is also a way to take care of it.
