Never been one to "put all my eggs in one basket" so to speak. I quilt, cross stitch, do thread crochet, knit, sew garments, paint, do stain glass, draw, dabble in tatting, read, work puzzles, etc., etc., etc. Just can't understand the concept of someone being "bored". I'll be 75 years old next month. My only concern is not living long enough to do all the projects I have in mind!

Ah yes, there are many just like you. I started out as a garment sewer, then got into sewing crafts (like making bags) and quilting. I also knit, crochet, bead, cross-stitch, and scrapbook. Love to read, and.... almost forgot... I have to work full time also LOL!

So funny that someone mentioned tatting - that's the one thing I have never been able to conquer - so I just signed up for the Craftsy course on it! Because I NEED another hobby!

Yep! I am right there with you!! Quilting, embroidery, cross-stitch, making jewelry, making dolls, doing miniatures, and the list goes on........

I say that I do and enjoy anything with a needle and fibers/fabric. I scrapbook a bit. All of these are therapy. Why lay on a guy's couch for an hour to the tune of $60, $70, $100 and have nothing to show for it. All of this is great therapy. I do one craft for a while and throw myself into it. Right now it is knitting but getting very interested in quilting again. Will put away the yarn and knitting needles and bring out the fabric stash...large stash. My poor family but I love what I do. Don't worry if you enjoy it, just enjoy every minute of whatever it is!!

Quilting, ceramics, card making, stained glass stepping stones, gardening, reading, exercise, beading......that is just what I can think of right now.....

I don't think you can ever have to many hobbies. We go through different phases in our lives and what you like today might not hold you interest tomorrow. You should challenge your self and do whatever feel right to you. One day you may be to old to enjoy some things and will regret that you didn't at least challenge your self. Do whatever ever feel right to you.

I used to cross-stitch, plastic canvas, paint clay pots and scrapbook, but quilting has taken the front stage for me. This is a very expensive hobby, which you all know, and so was scrapbooking so the old pocket book had to pick one or the other!

Oh my goodness! I am glad to know that I am not the only one! I have many hobbies, and love to try new things. I sew, quilt, knit, crochet, make jewelry, etc. I just love to try new things. Keeps life exciting.

You are certainly not alone! I spin my own yarn, felt, knit, used to crochet and tat, sewed all my kids clothes when they were young, quilt, stamp, read, read, read, and if I have any time left over I have to clean my house!

Go for it Girl. You shouldn't ever have to say you're bored.... I hate that word. I'm into wanting to do a lot of things. I also want to learn to "tat"
