I just started doing this a couple months ago, and so far I really like it! My sister has been rug hooking for a few years, and she got me started with it. To me it's like painting with fabric, and it's very relaxing. It's not...

silver245 The oval rug is a toothbrush rug. I posted more about them in the discussion titled "Do you think you can teach your craft to a non family member." And actually the hooked one is small, so I want to use it as a wall hanging. Since it's fall themed I'm hoping...

A co-worker told another coworker that I crochet, she contacted me to teach her. She has knitting experience, and wanted to try a different craft. I must say it was not something I was crazy about. I did teach her a few stitches....

silver245 Hi matsulori. It's basically done with half hitches. The beginning of it is the hardest part. If you do a search you can find places that sell directions for them. :)

silver245 I did post the picture on my profile if you'd like to look at it. I don't know why I haven't been able to post one on a discussion. I'd done latch hook with the yarn before... years ago. But I really like this so much more. Glad to hear someone else enjoys...

silver245 I never knew anyone that did it until my sister got interested in it. That's wonderful that your great grandmother was able to do it and other crafts even though she was blind.

silver245 Hi ibuemma & tdemex! I can actually agree with both of you. I no longer write checks. I use my debit card when shopping and pay my bills online. I used to be one of those people that got impatient when people took a long time to check out. But I've learned...

silver245 I have to agree with tcup345. I think that your nephew needs some psychiatric or psychological help. It has been proven that people who physically abuse animals a lot of times go on to abuse humans. If he starts getting help while he is still young it may...

I especially love classic rock and roll. I am talking old school. Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and Ozzy Osbourne. Do any of you remember the Ozzyfests and are any of you old enough to remember what rock was like back...

silver245 I've still got a lot of the old vinyl too, and no turntable either! CSN&Y are another one of my favorites that I forgot to mention, and Queen. I like some of the 70's progressive rock bands too, like Yes, Genesis... the early stuff especially, and Emerson,...

After marriage do you have a plan for having children? Or leave it to chance? Some people are of the opinion that they must immediately go for children. Earlier the better. You can raise them when you are young and can look after...

silver245 My plan is the same as Galena's, but mainly because I'm almost 48 and feel I'm way too old to have children! lol But when I was younger my ex-husband and I did plan to start having children about a year after we were married. I think that some planning is...

Hello all. I think we each have one particular person to whom we turn first in a time of need...friend, family member, spiritual guide, or if a student, perhaps an adult you're close to other than a parent. For...

silver245 Hi Karen I'm happy for you that you also get along with your sister. My other sister is 7 years older than me, and we're close too. The only problem is that she lives clear across the country! We do email and talk on the phone a lot though. When we were...
