I just used a wooden strip nailed around the edge of cloth to attatch it to wooden frame.
Works good for me........however i now use snake wire from bunnings instead. But depends on the style of cage your making, and it suits the cage Ive done with it;.

Just watch your animals for any evidence of nose rubbing, some do , some don't
