I washed and ironed my project this morning (after watching your videos ❤️) and now I’m going to attempt to frame it. Just wanted to say ‘thank you’ once again for these great videos!
Excellent video, very good explanations on how to mat a piece. I'm glad you showed the adhesive because I was wondering if it works better than using double-sided tape (looks like it does). I've been framing my own projects using frames from Goodwill and this should make future ones turn out much neater. And mat board looks better than sticky board. Thanks!
I was always told to lace a project when framing. Oh, what a palaver.😂 Your method is so much quicker and easier and i will be using it in future, but i will also watch your lacing tutorial. Thank you.
I appreciate this approach. Not everything you stitch is an heirloom requiring a professional framer. It's a shame when folks finish a piece and they leave it in a drawer because framing is so very expensive. This "down and dirty" method will get those pieces on display, where they belong!
I love your approach to recycling! I am so with that plus I don't have the funds to pay someone anyway so, win win! This was a really helpful tutorial as usual, Ford 👌😊
Yes, it works to hold the fabric to a canvas surface. The sticky is not super strong though so if there's no frame there to hold the edges, you'd need a more secure attachment method!
This is a great idea. I have never seen any technique that doesn’t involve folding extra fabric over the sides and lacing or hot gluing. It down. This seems better. Did you come up with on your own?
Yes, I based it on how we used to frame photos in the pro camera shop I used to work in. It limits later choices (like moving to a bigger frame later) but so far I've never regretted cutting off the excess!
Check again. The link worked for me in the US. But also, both Michaels, Joanne's, and Walmart all usually carry this. There's an Elmer's version and one from Aileen that I've also used.

It's on the list of future video ideas!
Another great tutorial! Thank you! Now to go buy a dual point framing driver... :) ❤
It's a little expensive but honestly I've loved having mine. Thanks for watching!
Your “extra-ness” came in handy 😅 that’s a neat framing tool.
So glad you found this helpful! Thanks for watching!

We totally agree! Thanks for watching :)
Another great and detailed video!! A+
Thank you for watching! I wanted it to be very detailed but that does unfortunately also equate to "long"!
I love your approach to recycling! I am so with that plus I don't have the funds to pay someone anyway so, win win! This was a really helpful tutorial as usual, Ford 👌😊
Even when I do have the funds, I prefer to hang on to them because the only part of being a Boy Scout that stuck with me was "A scout is thrifty"!
@@SonovaStitch Yes, same here. More funds for more fabric, thread and patterns!! 😀 And, of course, reducing our footprint a bit...
Hi Ford!!!
Do you have a recommendation for another spray? That Krylon spray is no longer available(here in the states).
So useful, thanks! Would that sticky spray work on a canvas? Or would it be better to stretch the aida over a wooden frame to make a mock canvas?
Yes, it works to hold the fabric to a canvas surface. The sticky is not super strong though so if there's no frame there to hold the edges, you'd need a more secure attachment method!

The adhesive is sold out! Having some trouble finding a comparable one on my phone

Lacing a project to frame. What to lace it on to.
I'll add it to the list of ideas for you!
Thanks a lot for the video and very impressed with all the tools etc 😍🖼🧵🪡
Thanks for watching :)
