I did a search and there is a thread for this subject but it is from 2003. I though we could do an updated thread on it.

My hobbies are really crafts but I think they count as a hobby!
They are crocheting and knitting, though I crochet much more than I knit.

What's yours?

I have too many for my own good ! I can never finish one project without starting another. Genealogy, gardening, scrapbooking, photography, cross-stitch and recently took a stab at crocheting again. I'm sure there's more I just can't them of them all at once

I enjoy reading, decorating, surfing the net, walking, sightseeing, and occasionally painting.

I enjoy sketching pictures, sewing, and going on nature-walks and hikes. Not to mention reading and TCS, of course!

MMORPGs, RPGs, reading, and my much neglected hobby of building Victorian dollhouses.

I have several hobbies but I think the ones that get me the most enjoyment are computers and photography. I also love to garden (or house plants for now), draw, and bake.

I'm lucky that my hobby and my job are one in the same. I love flying, no one can call me or bug me!...the best feeling in the world!

I love to read. I am also famous for buying the materials and sometimes starting (but rarely finishing
) a DIY home project.

Reading, cycling, the internet...between school, practicing an insane amount, rescue work and my job, there's little time for anything else!


Katspixiedust...I love to scrapbook, too! I haven't done it in a while, but you;ve inspired me to sit down and do it

Oh great! It's so time consuming isn't it?! Whenever I sit down to do a new page I spend at least a couple of hours working on it trying to make it just right! The result is always so worth it though. It's such a fun and unique way to keep your memories. It really reflects on you, which is great if it's something you plan to pass down.

Oh, I know, and it's been a year since the last time I sat down to do it...I just get so carried away with my flute and all of that that it tends to fall through the cracks. My 4 years of high school are all perfectly preserved for my kids and their kids and so on! Just imagine what it will be like if/when we get married or have kids! Wow! That's going to be some pretty intense scrapbooking!

Do you tend to use patterns, like Creative memories, or just do your own thing?

I go horse racing a fair bit, although I've yet to master the technique of backing an actual winner. Other than that, it's just the usual things of meeting up with friends, reading, playing with kittens and watching films/tv.

I'm really lucky, as my hobbies are all intertwined with my work, so I can knit, sew, draw, paint, sculp, photograph....etc all day everyday!
The only thing is that everyday is work!

Under the cats, mostly.
I draw, I paint, I stitch, I read and I love to get out and walk or cycle. Copenhagen is a "Cyclist's City", so there is always somewhere nice to go. When the weather is good, that is.
