<p><font face="comic sans ms,sand" color="#660099" size="2">Yeah, I know. Other hobbies, yeuch. </font></p><p><font face="comic sans ms,sand" color="#660099" size="2">But, see, the trouble with miniature painting is that it's a very static hobby; I need to be at home, with loads of stuff at my disposal and enough time to make it worthwhile (I know there are painters who manage to work in very short sessions - while traveling by train or plane even - and using no more than the basic colours and a spare plastic cap as a palette. More power to them, I say, but I really can't be arsed to do that.)</font></p><p><font face="Comic Sans MS" color="#660099" size="2">So while on the bus, or when I have just a few minutes anyway, I do something else. Stitching is a good example - I can throw everything I need into a plastic bag and fit it into my handbag, ready for the next &quot;crafty fit&quot;. Plus, I get some money from commissions sometimes, which is good (did I mention I'm unemployed atm?) </font></p><p><font face="Comic Sans MS" color="#660099" size="2">Here's a couple things I have stitched for my neighbour's baby daughter, Giorgia...</font></p><p><img title="Salvietta baby.jpg" height="232" alt="Salvietta baby.jpg" src="http://blog.coolminiornot.com/image.php?id=17252364" width="393" border="0" /></p><p><font face="Comic Sans MS" size="2"><img title="Bavaglino baby.jpg" height="229" alt="Bavaglino baby.jpg" src="http://blog.coolminiornot.com/image.php?id=87451537" width="390" border="0" /></font></p>
