Some plastic canvas-y goodness

Popping my head up for a few moments to share some awesome plastic-canvas goodness from a recent eBay score. Those bags are quite a feat of engineering!

I quite like the stitch pattern here, and is that a lining stitched inside? Somebody’s a PC-ninja, that’s all I’m sayin’.

This gingerbread house is very cute, I think. I’ve had plans to make some of these for a while now. Someday I need to show you the needlepoint house K. and I built in Second Life, too.

This little vase gets props for using smaller-holed 10 count canvas, and for executing pretty darn nice curved edges. It’s that narrow strip at each corner that does it.

Wow! So if I ever want to give myself an award for being the last champion of plastic canvas, now I’ll know exactly how! I’d wear it with pride, too.

  • OMG, Futuregirl just totally cracked me up, wishing for plastic canvas pj's! That's even better than a duct tape wedding gown!

    I love the little purse. Love it. In fact, it may be the prettiest thing I've ever seen done in plastic canvas.

    Ooh! I love that gingerbread house!! I hope you plan on doing a tutorial of some kind soon! It sure would help me actually make one...
  • That white bag is AMAZING! Looks almost like a MiuMiu bag. To good to be true. As I'm into bags and purses these days.. A REAL TREAT! xoxoxo
  • Hey, you will always be my Sister Diane !!
  • This is RIGHT up my ALLEY in terms of the graphic/geographical style. I will definitely put this on my list of things to take on. Thank you for this head's-up!

    LOVE the white purse! And on another note, I have a question. Are you going to keep the "sister" in front of "Diane" now that Church of Craft is over?
  • hahaha those medals... I literally guffawed. I AM TOO A CAPTAIN! I am a captain of CANVAS.

    PC Ninja indeed!

    Now, what I want to know, and I'm surprised you left out, is what in the world do they mean by "Ladies' Purses and an Entire collection of Children's pajama and book totes??!!?" I'm assuming they mean pajama totes? Like an overnight bags? But what I'm hoping for with all my hope (like it's xmas eve) is that there is a kid in that book dressed in plastic canvas pjs. Oh, please, please! I'll never ask for anything ever again.
