Cooked, I am interested in the bags you are making from plastic bags. Is there a place where I can get the pattern? We always have too many. Right now I take them to the library for patrons to use on rainy day. And our local grocery store has a spot to return them for recycling. They are using "Hippo bags" which is recycled plastic. Great idea!
Have a good day!
Hard to pick a fave I go from one to the other on a regular basis.
I've got cards, scrapping, I sew, I make beaded jewelery but only for myslef and gifts, I crochet, I've woodworked and painted, glass paint, ceramics, but to choose an all time fave, too hard! LOL
I envy all of you I don't have a crafty bone in my body. My daughter makes Jewelry and does great with it. My beloved G-Mom was a great seamstress and Mother did a lot of hooking rugs, cross stitch embroidery etc darn shame I did not inherit some of their talent

Thank you Kathy very sweet of you to say that. She never did anything till this past Oct, no lessons or anything just trial and error. But she has the patience to do these things. She enjoys doing it and makes a bit of $$ in the process. Her hubby is 100% behind her even tho' she has spent LOTS on the beads, findings, diff threads etc. Thank you again will try to go back to bed

I enjoy doing crafts, too, and like many of you, have sampled among many different things -- cake decorating, crochet, scrapbooking, ornaments, beading/jewelry, and counted cross stitch.
My current favorite is counted cross stitch. I've been making framed stitched pictures of postage stamps for my husband's office (he works at a national organization for stamp collectors). I'm hoping to get back to my scrapbooking this spring/summer.
I don't think I have any one favorite craft.
I do crocheting, sewing, some knitting, beading, macrame, embrodiery sometimes and cooking.
Have been sewing clothes more lately. As I've been sewing for the tots in my life; just finsihed a sun dress for myself.
But, I need to be in the mood and have time to finish projects that I start.
When my kids were growing up I would always start something and never get it finished. Have been trying to finish up some of those things now. I am starting on making Baby things again as my oldest DD is expecting again in October.
