I love doing just about anything that lets me be creative.  Mostly it's related to fiber in some way: art quilting, mixed media, knitting.  I've also been designing and selling earrings - instant gratification and they sell better on Etsy too!  :)  What is everybody else into?
That is great... i love everything to try. Now adays i enjoy sewing,quilting,gardening,from inside out i enjoyed very much. I also
enjoy playing sports tennis. I would say that whatever you could put your hands on i am pretty much enjoyed them. I wished i have
partner here that we could do these things together and it would be more much enjoyable... :thumbsup: :heart:

I bought some books several years ago called Trash to Treasure. There are so many ideas in them! I make ornaments for the Christmas tree, and jewelry.

I also paint pictures on glass or wood.

I am not very talented when it comes to crafts even though I do like to try new things from time to time.  I do enjoy doing latch hook, painting (easy things like sun catchers or ornaments) and simple crafts with kids.

I just finished up Sunbonnet Sue baby quilt that I embroidered.  I got a lot done on at while sitting with my mother in the hospital.  I am working on some cross stitch baby bibs now.  I will have a new niece or nephew in October.
Have a wonderful day!

I enjoy cross stitch, embroidery, and crocheting.  Also, any other little craft that I can use.  My problem is - what do I do with all the stuff when I'm done????  ???

I like woodworking and painting best. I enjoy doing small items like magnets and ornaments. I just wish I could get some sales on Etsy!

Starcraft? lol jk.... I don't really have much time crafting... But I did a lot of crafting in my electronics (aka wood shop since that what's 95% of the project is based on balsa wood)... My group made a claw device to pick up stuff and other stuff you can make with wood

Alice - here's some ideas for you as to what to do with your finished projects.
Cross stitch (which I love too btw)  make small items such as book marks, xstitch for personalized little thank you gifts.
Crochet - check to see if you have a "Quilting for Others" or "Project Linus" chapter near you.  These are organizations that collect hand made blankets, either quilted, knitted or crocheted, for needy babies.
Some hospitals also need crocheted baby caps for preemies especially. Especially the public hospitals (like County) might need them more.
Also Veteran's Hospitals are a good place to donate hand knit or hand crocheted items:  hats, scarves, lap blankets and so on.
I'll add more as I think of them -
