Hobbies/Crafts and MoneySaving ...

Knitting, spinning (the wooly kind), sewing, basketweaving and the allotment are the major interests and I dabble around in quite a few other crafts like crochet, weaving, felting, beadwork and quilting.

I can't bring myself to think of the sort of cooking I do as a hobby, lol. Cakes and jam making, perhaps.

Apart from that I read and cycle.

I love dolls houses! I haven't had one for years (my old Lundby house is still in my parents' loft) but one day when we have enough space I would love to have one that I could make furniture for and decorate. It's kind of a secret ambition Yours are lovely and I also love your paintings.

I love cooking, if you can call that a hobby, and knitting and crochet. I used to sew a lot but haven't done any for a while apart from mending which really doesn't count, and I also used to do a lot of drawing and watercolour painting but again I haven't done any for a while. My job (specifically the commute) is making me terribly tired and stressed and I seem to have no free time, but I'm hoping to give it up soon and find something closer to home so hopefully that'll change. I've dabbled in more creative hobbies over the years than I can even begin to remember but knitting, crochet, sewing and painting/drawing are the ones I always come back to.

I'm also into calligraphy, I'm learning copperplate right now which is absolutely beautiful.

My other hobby is learning languages. I've been studying Spanish on and off for years and more recently Portuguese for a couple of years.
