Imagine my surprise when a customer turned up with this wonderful piece purchased from the Broderers’ Exhibition in London. I had attended this exhibition myself a few weeks previously because I had framed a piece
for another embroiderer.
A truly Covid inspired work with wonderful colours and unique design. In the exhibition it had hung just as the felt fabric stretched over a circular hoop but it now required framing to protect it for years to come.
A suede mount board was chosen being sympathetic to the felt textile surface. A deep rebate moulding in a natural veneer gave the depth to house the embroidery. Spacers were also covered with the same mount board to line the sides of the box frame. Ultra Vue glass provided clarity, and 92% UV protection.
