I do all sorts of crafts, but my other love is card making, and since i have so many finished ones now i'm into patchwork quilting, now i make cards for charity, i can't afford to send some charities cash so i make about 100 cards for them to sell and all the money they get they keep, talking of cards i still haven't made the Valetine card for my DH,

I have little collections of random things but my main collection hobby is glass pumpkins. I only collect ones that are actually done by a glass blowing artist, I pick them up at art fairs and shows, so they are all unique and interesting.

Sewing is my biggest hobby though. I'll sew just about anything. I also do hand embroidery - I work on my projects when I'm in the car during trips, takes me years to complete anything!

I have a thimble collection - probably pretty dumb since I since can't seem to get the hang of using one! It means a lot to me though since I have thimbles from both my grandmothers. I also enjoy genealogy, gardening, grandchildren, cards, reading and traveling.

I am intrigued by the bullet pencils. Can you post a picture? I remember my grandfather having a few pencils that had no eraser and a metal cover for the lead.

Love reading all the postings. I enjoy quilting, calligraphy, genealogy, decorative painting, crazy quilting, *eating* hehe. I also collect tea cups, dolls, vintage postcards from my home town, vintage linens and a few pinecone whatnots thrown in.

I love to knit, love to sew, and love to read. Used to love to try new recipes, but so many in the family have health issues today that I have to do that for church dish-to-pass or guests at our home.

I have a gold charm bracelet that I "collect" charms from my family and friends.....I call it my power bracelet and tend to wear it often but especially when I need the extra "power" of all those that gifted me the charms. It helps me with the stress of the situation :)

I really enjoyed pottery before my baby was born, haven't had time for it since. I also enjoy scrapbooking, and used to make jewelry as a kid.
