Thank you! I was looking for some creative ideas for signing and dating the back of some small art pieces that are in frames. Your picture with printed/dyed fabric was very helpful! The rest of your article and newsletters etc. are very inspiring! Keep it coming!

[…] Since I like to make decisions as I go along, I’m not sure how it will be finished. One idea is to attach it to a canvas, a la Lyric Kinard. […]

hello
Just one quick note on the tutorial. Please do not write with sharpie on any part of the canvas behind the art work. Be careful to write where the canvas is backed by the wood frame. The reason I state this is that sharpies do bleed through the canvas and paint over time. I have a beautiful painting that an artist signed on the back of the canvas with sharpie and guess what… the signature is bleeding through all those layers to be seen on the front. Just because a product says “permanent” does not mean it will not bleed through mixed media works. I hope this comment can save others from future grief. Tess

Thank you for this great tutorial! I currently have mounted one piece but would like to do more.
I went to look at your Family Ties series. I love all the textures! Beautiful!

Love the family ties. I have many of my mother’s and grandmother’s lace hankies and other bits and pieces. I wonder if the greats and great great’s would like something framed.
Thanks for the ideas.

Thank you for sharing this information. I’m starting to mount smaller pieces of my fiber art. Do you date your artwork?
