I have been sewing since I was a teenager. Quilting for the past 9 years. I also do craft shows (fall) - I like to make things, but do not have the room to display them - so I get the fun of making them but not having to worry where I'll put them. Also there is a certain satisfaction when somebody buys/likes your work. It makes you feel good. I work mostly off of patterns, not all that creative on my own.
I retired after 30 years of office work. I have been reading a lot more. I use the local library for books, magazines, movies, etc. I like to get the stuff for free - that way if I don't like something - I didn't waste any money on it. I like all kinds of books - a lot of historical fiction, romance, mysteries.
I watch some tv - I am into the Closer, Burn Notice, movies and HGTV. I don't get into reality shows or American Idol. My favorite movies are: On the Town (1954), White Christmas, Mary Poppins, and the Wizard of OZ. I loved the play Wicked. More recently l really enjoyed 27 Dresses, Sex & the City, Miss Potter, Indiana Jones. I guess I like happy endings. I don't get into scary or horror movies. There is enough sorrow & violence in the world, I don't need to watch movies about it.
I like the oldies on the radio. The late 60's is the best. Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young were my favorites back then. I do have a 30 year old daughter so I have listened to a lot of her stuff (which I ended up liking a lot of it). Funny she got into Led Zepplin and I never did. Since I have heard it so much, I do like it now.
My favorite color is blue, favorite season is fall (I love the colors and smells). I like novelty fabrics. I like all animals. I like dolls and would like to get into making "artsy" dolls (paper, cloth).
