I've been scrapbooking for a few years now. I do fairly simple pages, with usually 4-5 pictures/page. I'm even doing a get away weekend in 2 weeks with some others at the beach.
I knit, some, but lately it's just been with my knitting machine, as my elbows started bothering me too much for traditional knitting. It's great, though, 'cause I can whip out a baby blanket in 2 light evenings of work. I'm wanting to make a twin-set with a tank and short sleeve cardigan, but need to work on the design some. I HATE to spend a bunch of time on it, and then not have it fit right!
I haven't done much sewing lately, aside from some stuff I made for my vacation a year ago - and valences.
I think my Mardi Gras costume was the last 'crafty' thing I did. I too, have a room that is dedicated to my craft stuff (and it REALLY needs to be organized!)
I was just talking about this with a gal from work - I come by my 'craftiness' honestly - Mom, both her parents and at least one aunt (who raised sheep so she'd have wool to spin to knit!), and her Grandmother all did tons of crafty things. My Mom's Grandmother did a clay bust of my Mom when she was 5. You can STILL tell it's of my Mom (which also says something that she still looks like herself 60ish years later!)
