I've always been into making things ever since I was a toddler. I would collect old cereal boxes and Fairy liquid bottles etc to make stuff from.
One craft I really love, apart from crocheting, is sewing/painting canvas tote bags. Pretty specific I know lol! I went through a phase back in 2005/2006 of painting these Ebay bought calico bags and selling them. I once got about £11/$18 for one of my hand painted bags! It's a craft I have just recently taken up again, but now instead of buying the bags ready made, I bought a meter of calico fabric and am making my own, with lining.
I also like general sewing (I like making skirts, bags, cushion covers), jewellery making and even had a go at Felting. But no matter what I try, I always end up going back to crocheting!
PS - EssHaych has gone to Cyprus! So if I don't reply to your comments don't think I'm ignoring you, I'm just busy relaxing on a sun lounger! ;p The remainder of these 30 Days posts are pre-written :)
hmm, i might try drawing you some designs just to get a discount on one of those bags. XD

Jill - I second what Joan said! You do the washing up with Fairy Liquid :) Looking back at it, 'Fairy' liquid does sound weird phahaha!
