    I'm a classical bassoonist! I'm teaching myself jazz though, 'cause working this scene is getting BORING. I'm also trying to learn how to knit, but I mess up ALL the time >.<

    Keep at the knitting. You will get better. I messed up some at first but now I have taught I bunch of people how to knit.

    Agreed. . Messing up is how we learn. . I learned to knit out of a $3 walmart pamphlet. . lol Just decided one day that I wanted to learn how.

    I forgot to say that I learned a lot of knitting and crocheting from you tube videos.
  • I have gotten into making hair clips for my girls, going to try and sell them, there are a bunch of places on facebook doing it, so I started my own page named Sugar Plum Creations.

    I also sing in my church choir and have played the flute for 26 years and I listen to pop, classical, just about anything but rap and heavy metal.

    Is it the fairly new page with 5 likes. I am trying to like the page but found 3 with that name. Check out mine it is called ShaeKnits and is also on Facebook.

    yep that's it and I will check yours out.

    Okay I sent a 2 likes your way. One from my real facebook profile Latrice Westbrook-Simms and the other from ShaeKnits. I think the likes only go up if you do it from your personal page because when I like someone from my ShaeKnits page it doesn't add to their like count. Just discovered that the other day. I am about to get my boys to like your page as well.

    I added the two etsy pages to my favorites list but can't figure out anything about any circle. I am ShaeKnits on there as well. I don't sell my items there yet just browsing or shopping for now.

    I sew semi-professionally; custom pieces from word of mouth recommendations. The normal is baby and nursery items (bedding, stroller blankets, curtains, crib sets, bibs, burp cloths, etc) and costume pieces (special occasions, Renaissance faire, as well as Halloween). But I can and have sewn so many items it's impossible to list! I also dabble in knitting (omg, I'm horrible!), furniture refinishing, and gift-able items (fabric dolls, swank scarves, hair accessories, etc.)

    I don't have a etsy site, but I admire all of those who do! Especially you fellow stay-at-home mamas who find the time to do it!!!

    I love roots music and (as you may have guessed) my heart belongs to punk rock. <3
    Both my boys were influenced by our favorite musicians & songs! my husband play slap-bass in a punk/rockabilly band (just for kicks!) and it still makes me weak in the knees!

    for hobbies. I like to draw and animate, and home brew. I also play sax (alto, tenor, bari) and I am an internet DJ, although I'm on a break.

    I've tried to play a handful of instruments but my fingers will not bend! Guitar, piano, both impossible :-(.
    I can craft! I scrapbook, make jewelery (mostly dangle earrings and multi-charm necklaces), and tackle other re-purposing projects. I've made a fabric message board for my awkward wall, shopping bags out of sheets, etc. Currently learning to knit, but I accidentally unraveled the entire scarf :-o.

    I love to stamp cards and such! I am looking how to make hats and scarves from a loom. I also tye-dye. I am also a singer! We went to karaoke tonight actually lol

    I make cards - mostly children's birthday party invitations, but some others. They are pretty fancy. I should charge more than I do :)

    I also hand-sew with felt (robots are my specialty), and am capable of cross-stitching but I lose interest for months at a time.

    We are very crafty here! We love to paint, make decorations, cards, birdhouses, oh an endless lists. Always making homemade playdoughs for the kids. We love music & listen to almost every genre. We love playing rockband on our PS3 together & just singing songs.

    I'm not very "crafty", but I am a true music lover! I play the piano, but my love of music became even great when my son started playing the trombone in middle school..... he is now a music major in college and I have been the typical marching band/band mom. His love of music expanded mine so much!

    I'm a dress/pant size away from digging out my sewing machine. I did work as a seamstress for a few years.

    I'm also a classically trained cellist/violinist though it's mostly collected dust the past few years. :(

    One of my big NSV is that I can sing now. I've had bad acid reflux problems my whole life that prevented me from doing so and now they're resolved. :)

    I like to knit. I would love to crochet but I just can't get the hang of it. :(

    Not musical at all, though I once went to a psychic who was convinced I was.

    Any Ravelers on here?
