Step 4Attach the borders
Now that your art is complete, it's time to add the borders so your art will attach to the tv.
Cut strips from your border fabric that are 6 inches wide (approximately. Scale this for the size of your tv) and as long as the edges of your piece of canvas plus 1/2 inch. To continue the example, if your tv is 20x30 inches, your canvas is 20.5x30.5 inches so you will need two strips that are 31x6 inches and two strips that are 21x6 inches.
Sew the strips together end to end and right sides together to make a frame that will to around your canvas. Use a 1/4 inch seam allowance.
Pin the fabric frame to your canvas art with right sides together. Fold corners carefully and pin.
Stitch around entire perimeter using a generous 1/4 inch seam allowance.
