If you'd like a text/photo based tutorial on how to make a normal grime guard, I have one written up here: sirithre.com/grime-guard-q-sn...
There's also 90+ articles on my site about other finishing techniques, cross stitch basics, and advanced tips.
The WIP I showcased here is Midnight Whispers by The Urban Stitches.
