Mounting Textile Art


The one thing I hate is mounting artwork. It takes way too much time, expense and measuring! I tried out these mounting on canvas techniques from DMTV and I love how they look. Both these pieces are mounted on inexpensive shop bought canvases. The bottles piece was held in place temporarily with double sided tape whilst I stab stitched around it straight into the canvas. The cairns were mounted directly onto the canvas with a little fabric glue.

Cheap - check
Quick - check
Not much measuring - check
Works for non-standard sizes - check
Looks good - check
