Date: October 04, 2010 12:25AM I'm moving house, woot! Big project.
The studio space there is very tiny but I am unbelievable grateful to even have it at all so will make good use of it. I plan to finish making some assembly line products for selling, fabric bags, tissue cosies, cutlery rolls, monsters and dollies, etc. I've got a big box full of the pockets of pants I cut up for other projects that I'm finally going to sew those into a quilt for my little man. And I've got a large collection of interesting fabrics to make into a quilt for the small girl too. Those seem like good winter projects to me. Oh, and I'm taking a computer upgrading course as well, a little something just for me. Re: so any winter projects on the horizon?

Date: October 04, 2010 01:37AM Like Vinny...
Need to finish painting trim - man, I hate painting trim work. And then there is the kitchen upgrade that we never got around to doing... Getting into my electronics work; I have a few effects pedals that I want to build for a blind musician I am friends with. I have been putting it off but that is something I want to get to work on for his b-day, which is in January. Re: so any winter projects on the horizon?

Date: October 04, 2010 11:09PM I am a corporate pilot at present. However, I would like to be a personal trainer/nutritional consultant. I am studying the personal trainer stuff now. I am 37 and have been flying a long time. Tired of working for rich people who don't pay well. If I am not going to get paid well, I would rather help people.

Date: October 06, 2010 03:23PM I have got a couple of massive knitting projects on the go. Kaffe Fassett type designs in rowan wool - quite challenging!!!!!!
[www.knitrowan.com] hopefully this will show you one of the designs I am making - a woollen dress if you look at the scarf on the model - that is the design for the dress. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 10/06/2010 03:24PM by flipperjan. Re: so any winter projects on the horizon?

Date: October 12, 2010 04:10PM Oooo, thanks Jodi! I am being a little indecisive because I didn't know if the job market for massage was as lucrative as they claim. Have you found that to be true (if you live in the States)? Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
