I collect rocking horses of all sizes. I think the last time I counted I have close to 800.
|
Many other Hobbies take up my retirement time:
-We have 3 horses that we ride on trails, in parades and just generally have fun with. Having them in our backyard takes lots of my time. - I sew some Historic re-enacting clothing to ride sidesaddle -My quilts are almost always for Charities. Susan NJ |
I actually have a bullet pen that all the kids love to play with. It seems like a nice hobby. My hobby is to collect etuis or hussifs - which are little wooden, ivory or bone needle and thread holders that soldiers used to take to the battlefields. I also have a collection of needle holders.

I crochet almost every day. I hate to admit it here on this board, but crochet is my absolute favorite hobby. I especially enjoy working with thread and have made a zillion doilies, small table covers and even one banquet size tablecloth.

I collect antique and figural teapots. My hobbies are crocheting, knitting, cross stitch, cooking, reading and gardening. And of course quilting!
|
I love all types of crafts from cross stitch, rubber stamping, card making, scrap booking, ebmbroidery, etc. I don't knit or crochet though. I also collect Boyds Bears and some dog items mostly of dachshunds.
|
Dogs... my life revolves around our dogs (labs).
Inside in addition to quilting I do paper cutting... scherenschnitte. Outside... perennial gardening and koi pond. Not too much better in life than sitting by the pond in the garden with the dogs sitting by my side... me and my husband in a rocker with me sewing!!! Life is good!!! |
