I did!

A lot of my answers contradicted each other, but it was a lot of fun. :)

I also did it....I think I'm supposed to stay away from sewing...alot of my answers contradicted as well...but that doesn't really say much....I'm generally a walking, talking contradiction.

Mine turned up cooking and gardening, which makes sense. I am still going to try to pound my square peg into the round hole that is knitting and sewing and all the other stuff I don't seem to be that great at! hehe

Let's see, I tallied my results like the anal-retentive accounting major that I am.
cooking - 4
baking - 1
cut n' paste - 2
gardening - 3
knitting - 2
sewing - 1
Oddly enough, it looks about right.

Sewing kept coming up for me, which I agree is a good match. I love to sew, but don't do it often enough because 1) I rarely find good, clear instructions for things that I actually want to sew, and I prefer not to use commercial patterns because they end up being more trouble than they are worth; and, 2) if I can't finish it the same day or at least the next day, who knows when I'll finish it?

Also, knitting kept popping up. Knitting just never appealed to me - looks too complicated. I like crochet, though, so I figure it's the same difference.

The only thing that was just plain wrong was the one that said I wouldn't like cooking or baking. I think that's the one that has something to do with getting your hands dirty. I love to cook and bake. I never make a mess, though. :o)

Good quiz! I can hardly wait for the book. I think I'll call my local bookstore today and make sure they'll be ordering it.

:o)

I kept getting cooking, which is about as crafty as I get, although I really try to knit. Yep, I'm pretty food-oriented, but have never tried gardening, the second most popular suggestion.

The quiz kept hinting that I should garden, and I seriously have thought about it, but not until I live in a place where the seasons are slightly more distinguishable from one another, and the summers are not the devil himself.

The quiz said I would get along best with gardening (which I hate and am no good at) and cooking (which I love and am very good at). It also said I should stay far, far away from knitting, which I love (but it did help me to understand why I have no ambition to make stuff that's not "easy" or "low-intermediate" ... that's probably the lack of math skills, huh?).

the only ones that really applied to me, but boy do they ever, are that i like math and i am an ex-smoker, and my "main" craft is knitting.

actually, i'm terrible at arithmatic, i like calculus and trig though.
