It’s good to line the underside of a field with material, however it may be difficult to chop the items to good dimension. My device of alternative is a rotary, wheel-type material cutter. Olfa, Fiskars, and others make these cutters. Minimize a template to suit the inside of the field, press it down on the material, and observe its edges with the material cutter.
Follow supplies that gained’t unravel on the edges, like ultra-suede, flocked materials, handmade papers, and craft foam. Use a small plastic spreader to use a really skinny layer of glue to the underside of the field, press the material into place, and you’re achieved.
