Image Sizes:  #1 - 8x10 inches,   #3 - 12x16 inches,

If you are making your own working frame, add 1.5 inches to the image size

Fluffy pictures are stitched on the back and brushed on the front.  The stitch length is approx. 1/16" and the loops should just cover the image, with no gaps. Tack down the first and last few stitches by back-tracking ( or stitching directly on top of ) the stitches.  This will help to prevent the stitches from unraveling while brushing.  Place painter's masking tape around the image before brushing to protect the fabric from the brush action.  Use a "scooping" motion when brushing - the fluff should stand up rather than lay flat.  It is important to brush the loops and not the fluff. 

For Longer Fluff,  use the Adjustable Bunka Needle ( NS-1)
