I would like to do more intricate stuff but have not had someone show me a good marking technique. Scared to death to try this fancy stuff, though I would love to. I too do not sit in front of a tv empty handed. In the summer I mostly knit and crochet small projects, but come fall, I love to hand quilt...simple as my designs are, I still love it!
Pretty flowers. It certainly is a good hobby to have. I used to have a bunch of friends that gossiped for a hobby, and I got bored with them. Best to do something wonderful and productive like we have chosen.
