I love your crochet work! Reading, playing the piano, even playing a sport relaxes me. And hanging with my family and friends.

Counted crosstitch was my #1 hobby for years but I'm getting away from that these days. Have gotten into quilting, and making tote bags and little bags like you'd use for make-up or jewelry when your travel. I am working on a crosstitch project at the moment because I'm laid up recovering from surgery and it's easier to deal with. Once in a while I paint ceramic pieces. I also like making my own greeting cards. I also like making fleece blankets. I've made some quilts for friends (only charging them for the materials) but have never tried making money off my stuff. Everybody says I should but somehow I just haven't gotten there. Maybe one of these days.

I have some greeting card programs, but don't use them anymore. I like making three dimensional cards........I use lots of neat little stuff like scrapbookerers use. I save all greeting cards I get and sometimes cut stuff off of them to use when making new cards. JawJaw, the surgery was for a bunion, caused by a bone spur. Not as nasty as most bunion surgery, but still has me not able to get around all that well. Doc took stitches out today, but I'm still on limited activiy. Working on recovery though! Thanks for the good wishes!

When I'm motivated, painting has been an area I dabbled and took courses here and there over the last few decades. I have a pile of art supplies and canvasses I should use...
I used to design my own greeting cards by using a combination of hand calligraphy and pen & ink cartoon drawings in per card design, for Christmas. I made the master designs and had card copies printed off to give to friends and families.
I used to sew alot of my own clothing ..for many years before that interest got supplanted by regular cycling.
loved using my SLR Nikon camera for a number of years. I did do photo shoots for weddings of several friends and relatives. Now with digital, I see it more as a tool to record pictures to inspire me to do other artwork..when I get around to it.
For now it's cycling, reading. Am procrastinating on other other stuff/not terribly motivated.
HMMM...do hobbies includes activities that one "should" do?
