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?

Try here http://www.joann.com/joann/catalog.jsp?CATID=cat2887&PRODID=prd32529&source=search

That should get you started.

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

Have a look on eBay under plastic canvas. There's plenty on the UK site.
I don\'t know whether to be a good example or a horrible warning.
