Plastic canvas nativities

A napkin holder


When in "waiting situations" or on trips Carole enjoys plastic canvas needlepoint. She scours the stores and internet for plastic canvas nativity projects. Because of space limitations she can no longer do large pieces.


This was a 2018 Anne Arundel County Fair entry. It got second place. I didn't expect any ribbons because of the mistakes I made. I put nativity into the fair to remind people of the real meaning of Christmas, not for the ribbons.


This plastic canvas picture has magnets so it can go on the refrigerator along with other nativity magnets. 
Each of the plastic canvas figures as well as the stable outline are individual pieces glued onto a felt background.

Heart shaped piece of plastic canvas with the Holy Family cut from it.
Plastic canvas wreath. We hang it in our powder room.Carole has always wished that there was an accompanying wreath pattern with the Holy Family


Individual plastic canvas figures glued to our outdoor wreath

Plastic canvas figures that hang from our wagon wheel chandelier 

This was one of the hardest plastic canvas projects. All of the figures are supposed to be free standing but several need to be propped up.
These figures are more dimensional than others

These are the largest and simplest plastic canvas nativity figures. The bodies are basic cones and the heads are papier mache balls.
This was a fair entry.
This was made as a door hanger but the one side got broken. Now it is tacked to a wall.
