Support molding for fabric wall coverings

An assembly of border pieces for creating a framework attachable to a wall or other flat surface for mounting a fabric sheet which is cut to dimensions at least sufficient to cover the surface, said assembly comprising linear border pieces and right-angle corner border pieces, the linear pieces being abutted in end-to-end relation with the corner pieces to define a framework whose outer edge follows the perimeter of the area to be covered, each piece of said framework including a raised face, a storage channel having a narrow inlet running adjacent the outer edge of the piece and communicating with said face, and a keyway extending in parallel relation to the storage channel and having an inlet communicating with said face, whereby a zone along the selvage of the fabric sheet is trapped within the keyway and the remaining tail of the selvage which includes fabric material in excess of that necessary to cover said surface is stuffed within the channel so that the exposed selvage of the sheet which lies against said face presents a smooth appearance which extends to the inlet of the storage channel and is directly adjacent said perimeter.
