Erm... not talented. I don't consider craftwork recreated from existing patterns creative nor artistic.
Let's see... I do have a few cross-stitch pieces and I'm sure you know by now that I had three framed pieces stolen from me during one of my house moves.
Still heartbroken thinking about it cause I
personally changed the colour schemes for two of those pieces and
they ended up looking prettier than the original too!
Thankfully, I have a few other unframed pieces
safely in my mom's house back in Singapore... tucked away
somewhere... 
I'm able to crotchet and create paper flowers as well. Flower arrangement. Sew clothes from paper patterns.
I will scrapbook when I move into my own place and can afford the space for it. I also want to learn patchwork, quilting and knitting someday.

show you all my specialty.. i do origami.. my best work is this:
Origami Boulder
Not bad leh! Looks very
'zen'! And in touch with the natural elements of Earth, Wood,
and erm... Paper, which is a combination of Wood + Water.
Only thing missing is, you should light
it up, then you get ALL the elements represented then it becomes
very balanced! Ommmmmm!!

Hmm..... the FS is into scrapbooking.
I've accompanied her several times to Spotlight at Plaza Singapura for her scrapbooking supplies. There's another small scrapbooking shop at PS as well.
Basically.... someone has to be the porter.
Hmm... isn't there a Scrapbook University shop in Wheelock Place? It was being set up when I last returned to Singapore.

Very pretty and whimsical!
I'm collecting stuff from my everyday life here to create into some kinda artwork to commemorate my new life here in Melbourne. I'm now collecting my used Tram Tickets to see if some sort of collage can be created from them.
I've already done a dried flower petals display thing commemorating my first year in Melbourne and I'm sure a few of you would remember having seen the photo in my post a few months back.

Thanks. Something related to time and storytelling would be a good way to use those tickets.
I haven't saved enough tickets yet, mainly cause I started to use the 10X tickets so that doesn't yield a lot of used tickets for use.
But yeah... I'm toying with a few ideas but will only be able to do something concrete only after I've amassed enough used tickets. Hehe!
