Do you do any kind of craft? If you do, do you just make things for yourself and friends, or do you sell them?

The famous American photographer Garry Winogrand (1928 - 1984) said, 'I photograph to see what things look like photographed.' This may sound silly, but it's...

I quilt and sew. Most of my quilts are given as gifts. Very few people are willing to pay for the time it takes to create a quilt.
