Craft Corner

Craft Corner

A place to chat and share all things crafty!

What's your favourite craft? Is there anything you're working on at the moment? What would you like to create/work on (I have heaps of "one day" project patterns and ideas that I know I will probably never get around to, but it's nice to imagine)? I'd love to hear!

I have absolutely no artistic side to me and stick figures are the extent of my drawing ability, but I really enjoy learning and trying out new crafts. I learnt crochet during a stay in a prevention and recovery centre and it's something I pick up often when I am feeling blue, I need a distraction or I'm just a little bored. I've tried paper crafts too, although I didn't really get far with anything. Sharpies are some of my best friends and when I find my hands need to move I have a collection of smooth rocks that I draw on (different coloured circles) which often relaxes me. Sometimes I dust off the sewing machine and sew as well. I walk around spotlight for a fun outing 😉

Looking forward to hearing from you all 🙂

Re: Craft Corner

Hello everybody!

Saw a mention of this Craft Corner and I intend on scrolling through all the 250+ pages to see what people have been making. Quiltmaker here and occasional transpersonal art therapist. Currently facing homelessness so have been sorting out little portable projects I can do by hand. I had the best intentions to reduce my fabric stash by 40% but with the op shops closed and not taking donations...looks like I just have to keep everything! (shucks) I found my late uncle's pucka Army blanket from 1969 which I might keep out and tizzy up with embroidery and appliques.

Over the last 12 years I have been doing a form of art therapy that has a trademarked name, and this is one of the cards I made. The woman's face is an image from an advertisement I clipped out of a magazine so it's not me. Title: Buried Treasure (27 Nov 2009)

Thanks @Maggie

this is another one I made back in 2009.. Years later I read the lyrics to a tune by Alanis Morrisette called Bent 4 You and I really like that name for this image.
