[Nfb-krafters-korner] Plastic canvas

Mon Sep 28 15:13:16 UTC 2015

How far are the two of you, from each other?  Maybe one box could be sent to one and you could shair it and split the cost.  
I would put in the box, full sheats of canvas, 4 by 4 squares, crosses and stars.  These are the easiest shapes to work with.  The holes are not evenly spaced on the heart or the octicon or the circle.  I can teach you to work with these shapes, but it is very hard and nerve racking! 
See if you can find out what the shipping would be from Maryland to your country.  Have either of you done this craft, before?  
I am willing to make some tactual samples, after the new year
About how many would you want of each shape?
I now have a pay pal account, but have not used it yet.  How would you pay me with foreign curancy.
Let me know how I can help.

Same here, Hettie. 
Hettie and I have been trying to get hold of some plastic canvas here in South Africa, but, apparently, they just don't import it anymore.
 Not sure why. Maybe there isn't a large enough market for it?
We use to be able to buy it many years ago, but not anymore.

Hi folks
It's not fair! You are testing my curiosity almost too far..
Is the plastic canvas sold per meter and what is the width?
I'm thinking of asking someone of you to send me a sample depending on the cost. 

Hettie
nsive is the plastic canvas?

Big smile here!  I guess I convinced a few that you could cut plastic canvas and now you are cruising along with new stitches!

Way to go.

I got as a gift a plastic canvas pattern and am working on that. I cut my own plastic canvas very slowly one rib at a time. Did I mess up? Yes. The first two squares are in my scrap bag to be reused. But, I got it done. 
Learning a new stitch and will share it sometime in the future when I feel really comfortable with it. It makes a gift box complete with ribbon around it (stitched).

Let's get back to crafting.  Division is planning a membership meeting in October  so watch for the notice on that.

Come on this Monday at 9 PM for our Chat on the Chapter titled "Drunker's
Path" from the book, Sewing Can be Dangerous and some other threads"   There
will be a brief discussion on the Quilt vlock called the Drunker's Path.  I hope to give a class on this block after the first of the year.

We switched the date for the Ghost lollipop toppers to October 12th.

It is almost October, has anyone started any new winter projects [knitting, sewing, crocheting, etc.]?  Anyone working on a new pattern? New craft?

Where do you find a new project idea from? [not counting Krafters Korner]

Joyce
