Cathy is fast becoming my guru. Replenishing her supply of swistraw recently, she came into a motherlode of vintage plastic canvas shapes. And she let me have first dibs.
Can you imagine my squeal of geekly delight when I pulled these flower forms out of the envelope? (Bridget – maybe these were how your bag was made!)
Whoa, what are these? Imagine the possibilities . . . plastic canvas that takes a curve!
These are so interesting. I’d love to see their crafty origins. How to use that raised center? Ooh, the mind reels.
Last but not least, shapes! Of course, it’ll be September before I have time to play with these, but at least there’s something to look forward to as summer winds down.
If you really want to see some ingenious plastic canvas and swistraw creations, check out Cathy’s post series here.
. . . And speaking of swistraw, Cathy has just put a bunch of of it up at her Etsy shop. Go snap some up! I just did.
UPDATE: Cathy just commented that she’s also listed some of this vintage plastic canvas, so you can go get some of your own. Woo!
