Thanks for the input guys. Those are great ideas. I hope I'll have enough time to try one out.

My mom's birthday is coming up (Oct. 12) and I'm short on resources and time. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can make her?

Hey. I'm Jennifer. I'm new to the board. So a big hello to everyone.

I'm also very new to DIY type stuff, and I have no idea where to begin. Right now I'm interested in knitting and such, but I'm not sure where to get supplies. I've been having car troubles recently, so it's hard to get to the few craft stores that are in my area.

Does anyone know where I should start first, get supplies, etc? Any ideas would be highly appreciated.
