OK, I better add that one of my new hobbies is learning from this board!

My hobbies include Reading,Bobbin Lace Making,Bunka Embroidery, Machine Embroidery and of course Quilting.
BUT my FAVORITE thing to do is be a Grandma, living life all over again through the eyes of my grandchildren. What a blessing!

ohhhhhhhhhhnooooooooooooo, I don't need to know there is any such thing as a freecell hand held game. If I'm on the computer, I've got a freecell game up.

A few years ago I tried to teach myself tatting. I tried and tried and somewhere along the way discovered the little "snap" that you need to do to get the thread in the right possition. I made a couple little butterflies and called it quits. I simply don't have the patience to do the little repetitions necessary to make anything.

Good luck on learning and let us see a couple small projects.
