>> What other crafts aside from sewing as everyone and two I am just curious. As for me I have done some jewelry. I was taking a healer class and made a few pieces. In the past few months I have been slowly learning about cars making. As of yet I still have not done a project but I have a lot of materials for my Cricut Maker. I also have a Cuttlebug and a Gemini they are both die cutting  machines. So far I like the brand crafters companion, we are memory keepers, and Cricut I am exploring other brand. I am also interested in knitting and crocheting but have not gotten into those crafts yet and I’m not sure that I would be good at it I would not even know where to begin.
