<p>I would love to see pictures of some of these projects…it would be great inspiration. I remember back in the day watching Martha Stewart (the old format) and although some of her projects were over the top she inspired many wonderful ideas.</p>
<p>My grandmother taught me to knit M-A-N-Y years ago. I recently took it up again and am working on a sweater. I learned to sew in Home Ec class in 7th grade – back in the day when girls went to Home Ec (1/2 year cooking; 1/2 year sewing) while boys went the Shop. (I really wanted to take Shop, but …) In the past I’ve sewn clothes, but not so much anymore. I made Halloween costumes for both D & S when they were young, but, again, not anymore. I still do basic window treatments. </p>
<p>I’ve also made a bunch of jewelry at the family camp we go to every summer. This summer I learned to make Russian Netted Bracelets like this:

<p>Several years ago I made a silver bracelet like this:
[Sterling</a> Silver Single Wave Cuff Bracelet](<a href=“Sterling Silver Single Wave Cuff Bracelet : Aunties Treasures, Your Sterling Silver Jewelry Store”>Sterling Silver Single Wave Cuff Bracelet : Aunties Treasures, Your Sterling Silver Jewelry Store)</p>
<p>Since the camp only charges cost for the materials, the things I make end up being quite inexpensive. It’s fun – I look forward to getting to the Craft Shop every year when we go back to camp.</p>
<p>Emeraldkity - what type of place was it that you took the workshop? That sounds exactly like what I need!!! The only similar thing I can think of that we have is a glass blowing studio - not the same…</p>
