Stretcher frames to hold your work taut are available at Blick Art - you will need a staple gun to secure it in place.
If you want to turn your work into a pillow, custom inserts are available through pillowsxpress.com. Order your pillows 2" wider than the size of your finished piece so the pillow has puff to it.
