Arts & Crafts

[Mojo-Jo-Jo]

Hi Ed,
I'm a crafty bugger as I'm sure you well know, and I was wondering why there is no Arts & Crafts Section in AB.
I know there is Hobbies and Interests buried deep in the bowels of Society and Culture (of all places) but this is a vast range of interest.
I think it deserves it's own header with sub-folders. What do you think?

[TheWinner]

Yes, I agree. I, too, have done many different crafts, but I am a "jack of all trades" and have only really mastered one.

I would like to see a crafts section too, if only in the hopes of being able to pass on some of the beautiful old crafts that are gradually dying off.

[tearinghair]

I'd like that too, Ed.

[Mamyalynne]

Agreed nice idea.

[nungate]

Great idea! I have "chatted" with a few fellow switchers here but I'm certain t here are a few more of us out there it would be nice to find them and chat and compare projects and so on

[boxtops]

I'd like that too.

I agree too re the subtopics - lots of people appear not to know they are there, or how to access them.

[boxtops]

I thought nungate meant stitcher....

[ferlew]

OMG, now I am alienated, never been a ruddy switcher.;........

[AB Editor]

I'm not sure about the name - we've got "arts & literature" so I don't think we can have "arts & crafts".

Other suggestions?

[AB Editor]

I know it's quite similar to what we have, but what about "hobbies & crafts"?

[gness]

Then just....Crafts....or Crafter's Corner....or Coven.....☺

[Mamyalynne]

Crafts and Hobbies

Handicrafts

Making and Creating

[gness]

Mmmm....Hobbies and Crafts...as long as you keep your eye on it, Ed.... You never know what some of us get up to in our spare time... ;-)..x

[AB Editor]

You might be closer with the spirit of it with the last one Mamya? I assume people want to show off their handiwork in this new section?

Under 'Society & Culture', you have got Hobbies & Interests, as well as 'Arts & Literature Section !
