Abstract
A device and method for mounting fabric on a mounting board or frame. The device includes a channel molding or strip having a plurality of barbs of cone shaped teeth located on the outside surface of the channel. The device is fitted on the edge of a mounting board or frame, fabric is stretched over the board or frame and impaled on the barbs or teeth thus securing the fabric on the mounting board or frame. The device is small enough that it would be hidden within the rabbet of conventional picture frame molding.
