Question
How do I frame a finished piece of cross-stitch?

Answer
HI Carolyn,
I would suggest a professional framer.  If that is not an option, there ws once a backing board that was sticky on one side.

This could be used as a firm backing, place the x-stitch piece on the non-sticky side and fold the extra over and adhere it to the sticky side.

Place it in a frame of the correct side, one with glass to protect your work.
