Where interests lie in craft

| 6 Comments

Interesting little meme going around. It's amusing to me to note that spinning would've been in the last category previously, but worked it's way up the ranks with surprising speed.

4. Love it! This is my thing.
Knitting, baking, designing/pattern writing, graphic design (blogging, web design/development/multimedia), music, spinning (wheel and spindle- but very new!).

3. I do or have dabbled in it.
Calligraphy, cooking, crochet, cross-stitch, decorating, entertaining, felting, origami, painting or drawing, paper making (did it in college), pattern editing, photography (wish I knew more), sewing, writing.

2. I'll give it a try.
Appliqué, beading, book binding, dyeing, embroidery, flower arranging, gardening (I have high aspirations, but I really suck at it so far), macramé (the kitsch factor amuses me), millinery, mosaics, other crafts, shibori, soap making.

1. I've got absolutely no interest.
Basket weaving, candle making, card making, cartooning (can't do it), collage, balloon animal making, doll house making, etching, glass bead making, glass blowing, jewelry making, lace making (needle lace, cutwork), lucet, paper-mâché, pottery, quilting, rug hooking, scrapbooking, stamping, story telling/acting/stage work, straw marquetry, string art, stuffed toy making, tatting, weaving, wood carving.

So where do your interests lie?

What a fun little meme! You should definitely try beading. It's my first crafting love actually. Very fun, and wonderful way to express yourself creatively.

damn that was a thorough list. don't be dissing on the animal balloons!

Don't worry Jessica- I know you rock the balloon animals. ;D

There are so many things I want to do... I'm thinking that I need to commit to learning one new thing a year or something like that. Then again, I have my hands full just doing the stuff I already do. So many crafts, so little time!

we have a lot of things in common! (except for the knitting, hehe)
