...I see I missed part of the point of this "board"...guess am too use to one-on-one conversations via e-mail and IM. I just realized another question was asked of me. "What are other crafts..."

Well I love to make jewelry and casting things in gold and silver. Here in Montana there are sapphires and garnets of incredible quality and most of the things I make are crowned with them.

Also I love to sew--English fog coats mostly. embrodery
