Don't glue the design. The glue could damage the fabric, in time.
If possible, use acid free card, cut the the fabric the design is stitched on larger then the board, then lace it at the back, with strong thread or dental floss, nice and tight so it is stretched evenly over the board. Then frame it.

Herring bone stitching Suzette - its sewing as though laceing a shoe if that makes sense lol
