you're welcome

Great demonstration - could I ask what type of linen you use pls ?

[@alisonwhateleydesign502]

Sorry for the delayed reply, but I've only just seen this message. I use a firm lightweight tarlatan fabric which I stock in my Etsy shop.

[@CelticBearWoman]

what about the permanence of the fabric? Is the glue archival? Thank you.

[@alisonwhateleydesign502]

Yes it is.

Thank you Alison, just bought one of your kits and using these videos to help. Once you have your piece on your mount board, what do you use to attach your mount on top please?

[@alisonwhateleydesign502]

Hello Jill, Glad to hear your making use of the videos to make up your kit. You don't need to attach your mount to your mounted piece, as once it goes into a frame it will all hold together. Best wishes Alison

[@lynseyadams6584]

You could always use double sided tape in the margins to make sure it will stay together.

Спасибо за видео.Это продается БЕЗ рамки?

[@deborahhammond8576]

Thanks Alison. Where do you buy your double frames please

[@alisonwhateleydesign502]

I get them bespoke made by my framer. Any good framer should be able to do it for you.

[@carolsmith4678]

Do you put glass in your frames if so how do you manage the depths of buttons etr

[@alisonwhateleydesign502]

Yes I do, but it is important to make sure that no part of the artwork touches the glass. I get all my work professionally framed and I either get it framed in a box frame, or use extra thick mount board and double mount it.

[@lifeaccordingtopearl]

Thanks for this. What did you call the board?

[@alisonwhateleydesign502]

self adhesive artists backing board

What type of linen are you using?

[@alisonwhateleydesign502]

I use a fine firm tarlatan scrim that I sell in my Etsy shop. Here is the link if you are interested www.etsy.com/uk/listing/945746410/fine-stiff-tarlatan-scrim?click_key=71369a6451789f357466b68527b31b73ef977713%3A945746410&click_sum=297b2ff1&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1&crt=1&sts=1

[@lulitmillion4803]

Do you recommend the same method for a very large textile? I have one that is about 70 x 30.?

[@alisonwhateleydesign502]

Yes I have used the same techniuq for pieces similar to the size of yours and it has been fine.
