Can anyone give me any \advice?



I do cross stitch using some tear away stuff that I buy at JoAnns. It is stiff and is kind of like canvas. You cross stitch in the holes and when you are through you pull out the threads of the stiff stuff. Wish I could remember the name of it.
barbsbus, is it called waste mesh canvas? I have been looking for many months, for this, and our Joann's doesn't carry it. Many ppl I have asked, aren't even familiar.
Actually, I am not familiar either. I read that it is a product that allows you to cross stitch on plain fabrics, etc. I would love to purchase some. I have tried looking on net, but must not be typing in the correct wording. thanks, qnc
