    I love doing most handcrafts (knitting, sewing, crochet, etc.) when I can find the time, especially quilting!!

    I dabble in knitting and various crafts, but my first love is cross-stitch. ( or, crotch-stitch as my son calls it.) I work at home too- running a home daycare ( and I mean, RUNNING). Those kids are enough to keep me crazy-- I mean, busy!

    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 >.<

    i like to crochet, make jewelry, rubber stamp, scrapbook,
    tole paint, cross stitch and work with plastic canvas.
    I want to learn how to quilt, paper tole & do wood working.

    I used to draw a LOT & played the flute when I was in school and have self taught myself
    a few songs on piano.

    I enjoy a variety of music.. classical to metal, hard-style and hardcore music.
    I cannot stand opera, folk music, twangy country or rap (unless it's old school).

    I sing a bit. Nothin' to write home about, but it's certainly a passion. :)

    If anyone has links or images to share, please do so. I'd love to see some of your work!

    I'm a songwriter. More a lyricist since my guitar playing is not that good, but as long as it's got a C, D or G in it, I'm good to go! lol

    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.

    I don't do arts and crafts, but I'm a professional classical musician (double bass). I listen to all kinds of music except country and bluegrass (except some instrumental bluegrass, like Nickel Creek). I especially LOVE all kinds of rock, 80s new wave, Celtic, salsa, African, jazz, and, of course, classical.

    I like to sew, and have made a couple t-shirt quilts for people. Most of my sewing is for my kids, though.
