Michele,

Thanks! I think double matting is the way to go. I did just what you said and contacted some other members, who've helped me out with the exact rules, which do, actually include mat dimensions. Thanks for the hints!

Chris,

Yes they do require plexiglass. Boy, is it expensive! Since, I am planning on entering more shows I think I will look into your way of framing. And absolutely force myself to start working on standard sizes! Thank you so much for the link, I think that's exactly what I'm looking for.

Thanks Mike, Jean and Josef!

I'm pretty excited! I will be double matting with a simple frame. Thanks everyone for all the help!
