I'm not an "expert" in any craft - though would really like to be able to make my own clothes. I can knit - it's the following the instructions that are the problem!!! I have tried quilting - my last project got a home with my mother-in-law, she's old enough not to notice the mistakes. I've almost finnished my Naughty Secretary Skirt - it's taken a while to complete - I hurt my back a while back and I can only do a little at a time. My first attempt is unlined - my next will be lined and hopefully, will be made- from a nice wool fabric or a suiting fabric and not from patchwork material. I am married, and currently have a "hampster" as a pet. Would prefer to have a dog or a cat, but we live in a small flat. I work part-time, would love to be a full time homemaker but I've not managed to convince hubby that it would be a good idea. Would love it if Craftsy could put their classes onto dvd's as we are only a one-laptop-family! I have a personal dvd player as, yep, we are a one tv house as well.
