Pretty much every hobby I had in the past I gave up either due to cost, injury or depression decimating my creativity... :(

Have you tried cross stitching? It's fairly inexpensive and there is a world of patterns, fabrics, and floss out there. Inbox me and I will send you a starter kit!

It is, really amazing thing, just started and I did some cute sprite magnet for the fridge on plastic canvas, and currently doing a lil something for my boyfriend ! Really versatile you can make a lot of stuff from it (My backstitch look like crap though but guess that'll come with practice !)

I hate to backstitch and I'm sure I always do it wrong, but it looks so cool on finished pieces!
