I am completely in awe of the wonderful and fresh things Diana does with plastic canvas. In fact there are several posts on this blog pointing to free projects she has made available using this ground, including:

If you have a piece of plastic canvas and an empty frame, you can make this earring holder from CRAFT magazine.

It’s just a plain piece of plastic canvas, but if you wanted to spiff it up a bit, why not stitch a few motifs on it? If you do hat just be sure to clip thread ends right at the motifs, so the thread won’t show through the unstitched canvas.

Use leftover canvas, a frame from a thrift shop or a dollar store, and stash threads and you have a handmade gift for pennies.
