Framing your own cross-stitch?

I frame my own cross stitch but I have a "hot press" that actually adheres the fabric to the board. It's very simple you just lay a clear adhesive on top of the board then the cross stitch fabric, place it in the hot press for 3 minutes and it compresses it and comes out absolutely gorgeous, the fabric actually straightens out and sticks to the board. There are also some sticky boards you can use to give you this sane effect, if you do not have a "hot press".

Then you just frame it like any other project. I believe you can dry mount the fabric as well using a different type of press. Hope this helps!

Many thanks for this information. I had no idea that there were tools like this for framing. I really appreciate the advice.

Many thanks.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
