If you really cannot avoid cutting the fabric, IKEA now sells blank frames to which you can fasten pieces of fabric. I'm sure that craft stores sell similar things too and it can actually be a nice design element, like a bunch of framed fabric aligned. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/70126044
