Silks

Post by Ricky »

Iv'e just gotten half a dozen hand painted silks to frame and i rember seeing the newbury method demonstated at the NEC, what I can't remember is once you've got the silk in position pressed & pulled,
you then have the excess at the back will it stay in that position without fixing if not, whats the best way to fix it, Pin or Tape?
