Gorgeous quilts Terri!

It's nice to read about everyone's non orchid hobbies!

I like hiking and photography, I also do some knitting most evenings while watching TV. One of my favorite activities is fencing. I started 3 years ago and this year I hope to be able to start fencing competatively at a national level (not hard level to get to in such a small country).

Sadly there are some hobbies that I simply no longer have time for. I did horseback riding for many years, but after a particularly bad accident 6 years ago I never had time to get back on a horse once my no-riding-for-a-year period (doctor's orders) was over. I love to do pencil drawings, quilting and scrapbooking as well, but have no time anymore.

i havent much time for orchids lately because im a manager at mcds at i work mostly nighttime (not time for orchids) and sleep during the day(when i should be taking care of them) so i only have what survives my haphazard schedule.

however im always on facebook, im currently making a 1:1700 scale paper model of manhattan, i play marimba in school as im a percussionist, french horn, listen to and write music, read, go to new restaurants with friends, and teach kids marimba.

Beautiful quilts, Quiltergal! I love crafts too, I can knit, sew, make lace, crochet, cross-stitch... I do everything to death tho, for a few years obsessively til I've mastered all there is to know... then the challenge is gone and I move on

Some things last the distance I still play my flute and i pick up a guitar at some point every single day, there's 3 always out in a corner of the room somewhere and I haven't had to dust any if them in 25+ yrs! Sunday mornings just aren't worth getting up for without marmite toast, a cup of coffee, a guitar and a step to sit on! I guess there is always another tune to master and another song to sing

For the last 3 years there has always been an orchid to thrill over... Currently there are 11 and some moss to rave over, u naughty bunch or enablers you!! Somewhere in the articles there's a picture of "Wendy" in her grow room... sat feet up with a coffee and her little dog.... I suspect at some point that will be me, with my marmite toast and an acoustic guitar
