Hi and welcome to the club. I make Pot Holders, some kind of needle work with floss, and I also crochet.
I find that amusing that you tell us what you do.
I made this afaghan for my dad, and he usese it every day. Today he asked that with all the holes in it, he didn'tunderstand how it kept him warm. Also on Christmas Eve, 2 more people asked for one to be made. They just don't know that I have 2 others to make. Thats alright though.

My name is Jessica. I live in Texas. My mom taught me how to sew on her machine when I was young. She had to teach me how to hem because all my pants were too long.
Around 15 my aunt gave me her riccar machine, it's old but great. She (my aunt) was the one that taught me how to quilt. I still consider myself a beginner because I can't do anything really complicated. Only squares and rectangles for me. No aplique for me.
My mom taught me how to cross stitch and crochet. I taught myself how to make jewlrey and now I have tons of bracelets and earings.
The one thing I still can't do is sew clothes, it's too complicated. All the matching and darts and measuring??? I can make alterations to clothes though.
