Janice Jacobson Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Can we take the canvases off, wash and put them back on the rollers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerri Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 I was told that they shrink quite a bit. Because mine are over 2 years old I purchased pillow ticking (mentioned on another list) to replace the 2 backing rollers only. It is pretty stiff and I think will hold its shape better - not distorting out of shape on the sides. Using a JoAnns 50% off coupon the cost was quite reasonable. Hope this helps.....

LindaN Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 The original canvas will shrink about 12". I use pillow ticking; its cheap, stiff, and easily available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoAnnHoffman Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 I found the canvases floppy and thin. I folded the edge of the canvas over on all three bars and stitched it with fabric glue. It makes the edge easier to handle and pin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
