I was just curious if anyone here does (or did) make crafts with plastic canvas and yarn? If so what were some of the things you made? I found some plastic canvas that I bought a while ago, so I went to the store and found the prettiest fall colored yarn, I am currently making the cutest fall colored baskets for a craft fair.

I love to do plastic canvas in my down time or traveling. Baskets, kleenex covers, coasters. Post pics when done would love to see what you have done.

I do a lot with plastic canvas. Right now I'm making a Texas shaped magnet. In past made: Christmas tree ornaments, Jesus signs, coasters, frig magnets, snowflakes, coasters, tissue holders, etc. I like to work on that when sitting watching tv at nite.

I bought some plastic canvas at Walmart for my GS to practice stitching. But the older yellow plastice needles that I use to use don't fit in the holes.
