Creative Canvaswork is in the same family as needlepoint and tapestry. It involves stitching into an even weave canvas. There are plenty of set stitches you can look up and try. But the idea of creative Canvaswork allows you to step out from the rigidity of using patterns and the accepted forms and use that same canvas to be creative and add in whatever you like.
I use different threads and yarns, fabric, fancy yarns, beads, etc to take it in the direction that I want. But what I really like to do is colour the canvas with dye or paint. Why? So that the gaps don’t show up as white if you use a thinner thread, but mainly because you can leave parts of the background uncovered and save having to stitch all over. Have a look here in this tutorial at what you can do with a bit of canvas.
