Need help! Does anyone have a tutorial on needlepoint finishing?

Does anyone have experience with finishing needlepoint stockings?  I have missed the deadlines for finishers, and have finally finished my children's stockings.  They are wonderful handpainted canvases, and I want to do it right.  I think I need to clean and block them, and then add the lining and outside, but have no experience doing it.  I wish my Grandma was still alive, she did lots of her own blocking, and some finishing, but I was too young to know what she was up to!  Can you suggest any resources to get information?  I really would like to have them done to decorate our mantle and finally fill them!  Thanks so much for any help!
