Playing Cards Coasters

These Playing Cards Coasters set patterns are something that caught our eye this week. So we wondered how this was done. It was a new craft to us and now we’re fascinated. Have you ever worked with plastic canvas?

We’ve seen sheets of it for sale in the sewing shops but have only ever used it in bag making as stiffeners for the bottoms of bags, to attach bag feet. But wow, it is so much more versatile.

Ante up with these party-perfect designs to stitch using 7-count plastic canvas, yarn and worsted-weight yarn. Pattern includes Tissue Cover Top, Coasters and Coaster Holder.

It’s a very simple idea using large holed plastic canvas, worsted weight yarns, and a large rounded end needle. You can start off simple with running stitches or backstitches, then try cross stitch and a whole host of different stitches and effects are possible. All while the rigidity of the plastic canvas keeps your project flat without pulling and bunching.

Here’s a video to show basically how it works. We suggest running it through at a faster speed so you get the idea, unless you want to give it a try and follow along at a regular pace to create your own plastic canvas coasters.

Click on the little gear at the bottom right of the video to speed up once you have the hang of how it works.
