Wow! We are all so talented. Love it. I love ceramics, oil painting (haven't done this for years), genealogy, crochet, knitting, jewelry making, wood burning, sewing; purses, carry-on bags, totes, corn bags, curtains & draperies, gardening. Some of my work below:

Oh I so wish I was more patient with puzzles. My MIL gave me some beautiful puzzles w/ quilts in them. When she was here visiting she did complete one for me, I glued and framed it, guess I will have to wait for another vivist for her to finish the other ones, mean while I embroidery, crochet, garden {ya spring is here} and I read alot. Oh and scrap book but haven't been able to get motivated on that for over a yr now.

Wish I had NAF, or that I was able to afford one, and at age 70, little hope of it happening. They are wonderful and some are made beautifully. I have bad lungs, but perhaps I could blow into one of those flutes.

I make and give away rag dolls for kids with cancer and other devestating diseases, i am a novice quilter (small things), I knit simple stuff....(posted two things that will perhaps show up on tomorrows knitting forum) and I crochet, embroider, try to draw simple stuff and paint it, plus my favorite thing to do is write inspirational mini=fiction stories (short shorts). My "grannys crazy quilt" is posted somewhere on here, that I wrote sometime back.

We sure have a wonderful and versified group in this forum. I also have a guitar I forgot how to play, but hope to re-learn.

I teach a short one day a week knit/crochet class to a tiny group.
