Ausmumof3 Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 I used to write before kids. Mostly poetry. I hope I will again some day. I’m exceptionally bad at drawing but I really enjoy it and have improved as I’ve worked through art curriculum with my kids. I love that as a not very observant person it helps me to notice external things and structures. I’m very sold on the idea that came first from Charlotte Mason but then extended through various other info over the years that drawing helps us to see and understand the structures of what we see in the world and is a really valuable skill for scientists. I love taking photos but I just use my iPhone so nothing high resolution. 14 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 I have always loved to create and make things. I write, do photography, loom knit, sometimes draw or paint, sometimes make crafts or arrangements of seasonal decor. I also love food as art: beautiful breads or desserts. I’m planning to do the decor and some flowers for dd’s wedding in September. I’m sure I will show off lots of pictures of that when the time comes. I am also growing a lot of flowers for the wedding. Depending on how successful that endeavor is, there may be a lot of flowers from my own gardens or fewer. We’ll have to see what happens with that. I don’t maintain a blog anymore. I have an Etsy shop but it is currently empty; the last items I had in there were masks which sold out in a few hours. 😄 Traffic from the Hive boosted my shop in the search results (I speculate); normally my shop doesn’t rank high enough for much traffic. Here’s a photo I took, which I enjoy (excuse the weird angle; I was trying to block reflections): 28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momto6inIN Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 I take pictures of my kids and our vacations and create digital scrapbooks, and I play piano, so nothing I can share. Once upon a time I wrote (mostly poetry), and I still have a really great idea for a novel or a short story that came to me in a dream hanging around in my brain, but I've put that off til "someday" when I have more time and less noise in my life to devote to it. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbutton Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 These are probably my three best EPP items so far. I don’t have a finished project in mind just yet—still playing around. I think PeterPan mentioned EPP as a hobby some people have, and I went down the rabbit hole. I don’t cut or machine stitch precisely enough for quilting on a machine. The EPP method perfectly remedies that problem. 25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Yes. You baste the fabric to paper or cardstock (via thread or glue) and take them out later. Foundation paper piecing is another style of quilting with paper, but it’s very different (crazy quilts, log cabin quilts). I don’t know much about FPP. I punched holes in my pieces to make them easier to get out later. You can see my basting threads as well. I should be able to use the papers many times (iron between used). Some people use scrap paper, but since cutting precisely is not my thing, I asked for machine cut pieces for Christmas from https://www.paperpieces.com.

Bill You pin the paper pieces to the back side of your fabric and cut around them with a 1/4 allowance. Then you iron the edges around the paper and either glue or baste them in place with a running stitch. I baste — you can see the basting stitches that I haven’t taken out yet. Then you hold two pieces with their faces together and whip stitch along the edge. Unfold, and it’s a seam. After all the sides of a piece are done you cut the basting stitches and pull the paper out. If you glue I’d guess you have to wait until the whole project is done and wash it out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If cooking was a creative art, that would my thing. I am a creative cook in the sense of I do not use measurements, I take a recipe and make it my own. Mostly it works out but some have truly been experiments and my poor hubby has borne the brunt of them, because I try it out on him, not the kids. I may never create anything but it gives me quite a bit of joy to try all these things. That I think is the point. Please don't be intimidated to join a class. I teach writing classes; teachers love to get students who are already readers. In a class with good instruction, you will produce and improve work. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweet2ndchance Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 I crochet and have shared pictures of that before. Don't have a crochet project I'm working on currently though. Once upon a time, I played the flute and the piccolo. Won competitions and everything. I made paper scrapbooks when my big kids were little but I've transitioned to digital scrapbooking. I currently participate in a monthly blog train for digital scrapbook designers. I host my portions on a website. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The basting stitches are big loopy stitches to hold the paper in (on larger pieces, you see right through the paper), and then the basted pieces are stitched together with tiny stitches that are permanent. When the blocks are joined, you can pull the paper out and the basting out. The loose basting stitches are comparable to gluing the papers, and yes, the glue washes out.

Instead of cutting the paper pattern apart you have an outline of the whole block and you place each fabric piece on the back of it one at a time so that when you sew on the lines you’re sewing your pieces together.

Garga Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 (edited) When I was learning photography, I started a blog to show a “picture of the day” for a year. I wrote about each picture. The blog turned out to be pretty fun and was a much needed creative outlet while the kids were younger. It was very time consuming, so I stopped, but I might take it up again. Meanwhile, I still am enjoying my photography. I like all sorts of pictures. Here are some that I’ve taken in the last year. I’m in the one that re-creates the picture with the red robe. My dh is in the one that re-creates the picture with the white ruff (and...sorry to poor DH, but I had to make him look more wrinkly and red for the photo than he is IRL, so that he’d better match the art work.) DS18 is in the field playing his didgeridoo for his senior portraits, and the one with the books is of a friend’s daughter for her senior portraits. I prefer taking pictures that require creativity, like the art re-creations and the one with the books flying around the girl. I didn’t take the next one, but my photography friend took it of me. She had some fun playing with it, and then created two versions of it. 🙂 For the last two where I’m juggling, it was in the fall and I was soooo bored being stuck at home from covid. I found a little chip in the paint in my car. Yes! Finally! Something different was happening! I quickly called the dealership and ordered some touch up paint. They told me it would be in on Tuesday. Yes! Finally! Somewhere to go! When Tuesday morning dawned, I peeled off the old sweatsuit that I’d been wearing for weeks, took a shower, fixed my hair, and put on my suit. This was going to be An Exciting Day with Somewhere To Go! And then, the dealership called and said that the paint didn’t come in after all. Nooooo! All dressed up and nowhere to go! My photography friend, meanwhile, was sitting in her own home in her own sweatsuit and said, “Come over RIGHT NOW while you’re still dressed up and I’ll take your picture!!!” So, we both wore masks and she took the pictures super fast, zip-zap (mask off only long enough for the pictures). I was in and out of her house in about 10 minutes. A few hours later, she sends me these goofball pictures. 🙂 It really was An Exciting Day.

I found him in a thrift store in the winter of 2019-2020, just before covid hit. I bought him intending to take him to my parents’ house when I visited them in the summer of 2020. (They live 2500 miles away.) I planned on hiding him somewhere creepy in their house on the last day I visited so that when I was gone they’d find him and be startled. Maybe under a bunch of frozen chicken in their freezer. It could be weeks before they’d find him and they’d wonder how he got there. It would be great! And then...covid. 😞 No visit. No chimp head under the frozen chicken. 😞 Chimpy completely creeped out my ds15 (ds14 at the time) and he could barely stand to be in the same room with him, but he’s gotten used to him. He sits in a place of honor in the dining room. He’s like part of the family now. When I finally do get to visit my parents, I’ll be leaving Chimpy safely at home because we all love him too much now. 🙂 ETA: I forgot to answer the question! He’s made of plastic and is actually a bank. Edited March 7, 2021 by Garga 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
