crafts and making things
so anyone into crafts? I needle felt this is my blog if you are interested in seeing what I make, I sculpt with wool basically http://indigoinkcreations.blogspot.com.au/ been doing it for a few years now and am addicted to wool roving, just bought some more lol my other half is going to kill me when he finds out, I also sometimes crochet, I do have a sewing machine but I don't use it, it hates me lol.
so discuss crafts and what you make!! |
I've built my last couple of computers, does that count? As close as I get artistically :-( when I'm not in my phone I'll check out your page :-D
|
I dabble in crochet, and drawing. I've been crocheting since I was like 8 years old (I started off with chain bookmarks), but I've never really finished a big project. I've started I don't know how many blankets over the years... >_< The most recent project I started was a pair of house room shoes for my husband, and I got the first one done (it turned out awesome!) but when I started to sew up the second one, I didn't have it turned right, and I didn't realize it until I had knotted off the end, so I've put those down for now. >.> Which prolly means I won't be very likely to finish them... <.<

I never heard of sculpting with wool before. Woop, your little creatures are so cute, omg. That must take a lot of patience to do that.
I don't do much in the way of crafts. I crosstitch some, I have done one small piece which I framed and gave to my mom and I am working on a large American Sampler which is taking me like 2 years and I am only 1/4th of the way done. I just learned how to sew on a machine because I was thinking about making doll clothes. I took some private lessons and now no longer fear the sewing machine! I did sew up a very nice little dress for one of my dolls and I could do some more if I got bored and took out the machine again. Sometimes I burn hot for projects and then I leave off them after a while though. |
Ha! I never thought of computers as crafts, but you do craft them. <3
I do handmade gifts for people that are getting married, and babies sometimes. I also paint and stuff. I love crafting. I do stuff for trading on reddit. It's fun! |
I love making things! I mainly draw or sew though. I made a load of little hairbows not so long ago. They're not the best since they're my first attempt but I'm still pretty pleased. I want to move onto jewellery making and then eventually open my own little Etsy shop :')

|
Thanks :')
Aw I wish I had a sewing machine! D; I have to do all mine by hand. I'm working on a toy monkey at the moment though. He's all knitted, he just needs his limbs sewn on ha. |
Anat aww I wish I could knit I've tried learning my other halfs mums tried teaching but I failed lol
|
My mum taught me how to knit C: I wanted a "hands-on" hobby when I was trying to cut down on snacking (you can't eat if your hands are busy) so I picked knitting/sewing C: I tried crochet too but I suck at that ha
|
I can't knit or crochet Anatidae, and you do good work by hand. I finally broke down and bought a sewing machine and then I got someone to teach me how to use it. Useful machine I will say that.
|
Thanks! :') Are sewing machines easy to get the hang of using? I also really like your avatar by the way
|
I have a brother sewing machine and it is pretty easy to use.
|
Every sewing machine has a mind of it's own. At least mine do.
|
I've never used one before. I'm really clumsy so I'm always worried I'll end up sewing my fingers to the fabric D;
