I crochet several rugs and throws. I moved on to knitting which I like much more. That was years ago when we lived in Alaska. Needed those warm sweaters year-round. Moved to Texas and I started sewing. Like this best of all. Sew all kinds of outfits for my doll-baby grandgirls. Now I quilt. I have 2 quilts cutout and ready to sew. Having fun getting my own fabric printed.
