Used to.
Now I only do sewing/quilting, crocheting, and gardening.
I cook because I have to eat.

What are you going to do for yarn? Will you start spinning or can you afford to purchase ready to use yarn? Raw fleece is very cheap around here.

When someone only has one interest as a hobby then I tend to think of them as having an obsessive interest. My interests are varied as yours are. Right now I am sewing Christmas gifts. In the summer I was teaching acrylic painting, last spring I was quilting.

Altho I love to make quilts, sometimes I need a break. If I have to go with Mom to Drs. appt, I take knitting or crochet. I only make scarfs but it still gives me my 'fiber fix' for the day. I belong to a craft group where someone will teach a beginning class. That person usually has extra supplies & great passion for that craft. We can decide from that if it is something each individual wants to continue. It has saved me slot of $$! Right now it's quilting, making bags for craft shows & making cards for the military. All those will keep me busy for a long time.

Crochet used to be my hobby but now I find it boring.
Quilting has so much variety and expense that it has taken over my life.
I still read alot also, will never give that up.
Im retired so have a lot of time for whatever I want to do.
Im single so the hell with house work and cooking, the board is much more fun.
I do walk almost every day.

Working, quilting and guitar for me. My fingers are always sore! And I try to get everyone fed so I can go to my loud hobby or my quiet one!

Maybe...for me, it's more a question of using all my $$ on quilting.Plus I have at least several bags of crocheted afghans,doiles etc.A lot of painted pics,cross stitch everything...a few knitted articles & used to dye fabric.At one time,DH & I were into antiques.My house is filled...no more room.


We have a great library,so I get books there.Too often, they're returned unread.there's no end to interests,just an end to $$ LOL

I'm also a multi-hobbyist. I've mostly done only the ones involving thread, yarn and fabric. Scrapbooking held my interest for maybe a month. Do like playing with the different colors and shapes of the heavier paper tho - that's kind of like designing quilts! Lately I find myself doing mostly smaller projects that can be completed rather quickly. A great way to try out different ideas without committing myself to a long term project that I discover early on that I don't really get excited about finishing. Glad I only got a small loom when I got bit by the weaving bug. I will finish that sash one of these days! LOL! And that counted cross stitch of the tiger and cubs. And that knitted camo gnome hat for Lori's grandbaby. And the renfaire dress for my daughter. And, and, and. . .

I dabble in other crafts too I also love to read! Being diversified is good for the brain!
By the way- I love your oriental picture!!! Is it a quilt??

I have too many interests! Rather, I have this problem thinking, "oh, I could do that" rather than buy whatever. I'm trying to get away from that and focus on improving in quilting and knitting. Of course, I still read...have to make time for that!

Too many and in fact, cutting 2 out and one down. I'm eliminating most crocheting except for Amigurumi animals and stuff. Everybody has enough afghans. I am finishing two scrapbooks this winter and then selling off nearly all my scrapbooking supplies. In addition, while I am continuing to quilt, I have to severely focus on using stash that I have and not buy more. I need to cut the pile in half over the next 2-3 years. By then, I hope to move back into my own home and I know I won't have the space for all this fabric!
