Today I finally glued the fabric to my painting! I had wanted to be done with it yesterday, but I spent an hour stretching the fabric over the foam board -- until I realized that I was taping it to the wrong side. I was l i v i d. But, I fixed it. It took me a while to find a suitable adhesive because I wanted to use Yes! paste, but I couldn't find any. Also, I thought that hot glue might leave odd lumps. So, I used some liquid craft glue. I had placed two heavy books over the piece before I left class yesterday because I wanted to flatten out the curled corners. This worked pretty well, so I put the books on the fabric again after applying the glue to ensure its firmness. There is a little bit of white peeking out along one of the edges, but I will probably be able to just cut it. Also, I have no idea how I should display this, but I have faith that Coach will be able to advise me. Finally, though, the hardest part is done!
