Plastic Canvas Podcast

delightful little house made of plastic canvas
Plastic Canvas, more than any other kind of needlepoint, has a bad reputation. Even among needlepointers. For most people it conjures up picture of tissue boxes, acrylic thread, and garish colors. I know, my beloved Grandmother loved plastic canvas and I have several pieces she did.

But plastic canvas can be hip and fun and is a wonderful basis for making all kinds of three dimensional needlepoint.

14 count plastic canvas can use the same threads as 18 count needlepoint canvas and can be finished without any trouble.

I found a wonderful podcast and article about using plastic canvas. In the article there are lots of links to supplies and information.

So, open your mind and try this great material.
