If you've been reading for any length of time, you'll know my main hobbies are fencing and sewing/costuming (hell, just check my tags). Both of these take up a lot of time and there are a myriad of things I'm not pursuing simply 'cos I have to eat/sleep sometime:

Painting/drawing - did a lot of both as a child and a figure drawing class a few years ago showed me I have a LOT to learn. Perhaps when I retire.
Shoemaking/leatherwork - this may creep into my repertoire (especially if I ever remake the Zoey vest) but as it requires a whole new set of tools/techniques, space is an issue as well as time.
Jewelry/beads - see leatherwork, though I already have some of the tools. I'll make something if it's quick/dirty or needed to complete a costume, but I just can't get sucked in.
Writing.
Knitting/crochet/other yarn stuff - I partly hold out because yarn is my sister's "thing" and I don't want to intrude, but see also: jewelry/leather.
Spinning/felting - 'cos those nuno felting scarves are just so rich texturally. Really, someone keep me away from this one...
Weightlifting, wall-climbing, yoga - admittedly I do a bit of the latter to keep my back from freezing but in general I'm so committed to fencing at this point that any "extracurricular" exercise I do needs to help that in some way. And as fencing is the best workout for fencing anyway...
