    Default Happy National Handmade Day!

    A day to celebrate all the wonderful work quilters and other crafters do.

    What other crafts are you involved in?

    I also tinker in: embroidery/cross stitch, making wood furniture type items, chalk painting, making things for 18" dolls, miniature things, crochet, and whatever strikes my curiosity!

    I love to knit, also counted cross-stitch, and making flowers with crepe paper (that's my obsession!!) When I get on a roll making flowers I can't stop!

    I used to do cross stitch, (for 17 years) until I realized how much I was spending on framing. And once they are done they just hang on the wall. That is when I turned to quilting. I have also crocheted, knitted, and done needlepoint.

    Quilting, counted cross stitch, embroidery, needlepoint, knitting, and crocheting. Mostly focusing on quilting now - just finished a quilt for our first grand baby. Quilting is fun and challenging.
