CRAFTS Where to begin.. LOL Love Quilting, making quilts, runners, totes, purses, small things , Rubber stamping, but not into scrapbooking. I like making ATC, but i am not very artistic. I use to do Stained glass and still have all the stuff, maybe someday i will go back to it.

A few years ago, I made hats on a loom , made 35 for a mans shelter, also made them a tote bag, adding socks, pen, paper, hand sanitzer, kleenex, comb. Not sure what this years charity work will be, maybe some scarves.
