Have you used paper canvas for cross-stitch artwork?

I have, and it’s actually fun to freestyle things. I could never do counted cross-stitch, and the plastic canvas is so bulky. This is just right for needle and double-strand embroidery thread.

z3mom07470 — I use iron-on adhesive to put fabric backing on. I’ve made ornaments and bookmarks and the most ambitious project was a lighthouse-shaped bookmark. I used blue and green thread in my needle to make the water and then brushed the thread when I was done to blur the stitches. It was neat. I was proud to give it as a gift.
