Hi ya Donna:-)
-=> Quoting Donna Lewis to All <=-
I guess I'm one of the *all* now..I just started talking is this area..It's
a fun echo to be in and they are all great friends to have:-)
DL> Hope everyone has a safe, happy holiday
Well, we don't celebrate Thanksgiving now; we celebrate it in October up
here in Canada...But thanx for the wishes anyway...I think it's better
the way you guys have it; it's like thanksgiving and xmas all rolled into
one big holiday...
What types of crafts do you like to do?
I like just about everything, except crocheting, knitting and plastic canvas.
The reason I don't like crocheting and knitting is cuz I can't do either
of them too well...I have a block afghan that has been started now for over
3 years; I've got about 18 blocks done. It is just a plain block, with one
stitch too it; I can't do any of the other ones:-(
I've tried plastic canvas and just find it doesn't move along to fast. It's
been awhile since I've tried it; and I've noticed that they have some
really nice patterns out now...I especially like the "Precious Moments"
patterns they have out now...But, I'll leave it to someone else...
I like to x-stitch(big time) do floral wreaths and hats, wearable art,
eading
and N.A. Indian crafts, jewellery making, xmas crafts, and painting on wood.
Some day real soon I am going to try some tolepainting! I have attempted
a couple smaller wood items with basic strokes; but nothing too technical.
I have all the brushes, paints and books; just need some confidence in
myself.
I have tought myself everything else, so I guess I could give this a go
too...I bought myself some teaching books w/patterns to help me out.
Classes in tole and decorative painting are very expensive to take..I would
at least have all the supplies...which can be the costly part of this craft.
Have you ever tried tole or decorative painting?
Anyway, hope you had a great thanksgiving! Talk to you later..
