Скачать или смотреть How to Dress a Slate Frame for Tambour Embroidery

A much requested video, and perfect timing because my peacock capelet needed to be shifted in its frame! This video covers my favourite way to mount fabric on my frame - or "Dress" the frame, as it's traditionally called. Your slate frame might look different to mine since I made mine myself, and there are certainly other methods but this is my favourite way to do this - I find it works best for Tambour specifically, and lends itself well to the larger pieces I tend to work with.

Here's the blog post about how I made the frame in this video: https://www.katmakes.com/blog/2018/5/...
