    My other main hobby is growing orchids. I have 2 greenhouses and I try to keep my website up to date. I'm not a commercial grower or seller, but occasionally sell a division here and there. www.elkgroveorchids.net

    I scrapbook, bake lots of cookies and make wreaths and bows. Keeps me happy and busy.

    Once in a while I crochet something. Mostly I do jigsaw online FreeCell or Solitaires of sorts AND I work cryptograms.

    I've been knitting wrist warmers and hats, doing a pair of leg warmers now - learning to knit socks is on my list.
    I also love to read, do daily crossword puzzle, sudoku, cryptoquip.

    Besides quilting, I play the piano and read.

    This is a great forum and a very interesting topic!

    A little bit of everything. Just started a pair of socks last night. I have been knitting socks for about 1 1/2 years. It is fun. Go to Ravelry if you need help with knitting. Good luck

    Like Gale, I make my own Christmas Cards. With digital camera and iPhoto on computer I have a lot of fun. I love to take pictures of nature, esp flowers for any occasion that I have a need.
