Thanks.  I had an epiphany one afternoon, then after I bought the needlepoint canvas, I started seeing it everywhere online.  Reticular activation I guess.   ;)

What should I google to find the stuff; 'Plastic Needlepoint Canvas' just gives a lot of site that sell patterns... I guess it's more useful (and cheaper) to find somthin without a pattern on?

That should get you started.

OK, thanks. If I do not find any in the nearest craft stores, I'll order overseas!
