I would like to see all the stuff you talented ladies can do/have done, DIY, etc.!!!! Knitting, crocheting, sewing, needlepoint, anything in furniture design, perhaps some DIY outside of wedding oriented, but I'd like to see both!!! Pics, please!! Mary MOB

One of my most FAVORITE things to do when I was single and living alone was to curl up on my couch and crochet while watching Sex and the City reruns

What a great thread!!

I crochet all the time, used to counted cross stitch, and I used to make fabric-covered mini photo albums.

These are the only pics I have scanned into my computer. The 1st two are tablecloths. I still take pics of all my work, but they're not in jpg format to share.

I have made tons of stuff, but only took a few pictures of things.

Here is a Big Mac cake I made and the towel cake for FSIL's shower last year:

Re: Ok, ladies!!! Who's holding out on us?????

I scrapbook and make cards. I don't have any pics yet. I wil try to take some today and post tomorrow!

I am working on one now for my niece, who will be 1 next month. Right now, I am just workking on the backgrounds, paper and 'style' of the pages - once I am done with all of them (I am doing two pages, or one side-by-side layout, for each month she's been alive!) I will start adding pics and embellishments.
