Textiles come in many forms including needlepoint, crewel and quilting. I have also added carpets and tapestries here.
I never use any glues or adheives when framing these items, however valuable they are as this can have a devastating affect on the material and often can not be reversed. A suitable thickness board is chosen (using a colour that enhances the work and pH neutral) to stetch the artwork over. The material is then secured in place with a suitable thread woven at the rear before framing comences. | |
