tap dance. I have been watching some old Fred Astair and Ginger Rodgers movies, and want to dance! I think tomorrow I am going to look at tap shoes when I am in town.
What do you want to learn to do?

That would be nice too, and draw something other than stick people.

I would love to learn to use my loom in the living room. I have had it way too long to not be able to weave on it. This winter I need to make it a goal to find someone to show me how to get it warped and get going on it.

Maybe the Irish stepping will follow tapping And weaving is something I would like to learn as well. I had an opportunity to buy a loom once for a really good price, but had no where to put it. Still wish...

I would love to learn to play the guitar, so I would always have someone to accompany me when I sing!

Hey Aunt Jenny . . If we lived closer together I could be your piano teacher!!!! I've been playing the piano longer than anything else except breathing, having started before I started school. And I've been teaching since I was 16. I am SO-O-O-O grateful that my mom made sure I had a teacher, a piano and EVERY opportunity . . . and she was my greatest fan! Go for it, Farmgirl-Friend! CJ

Jenny in Utah: I am a music major, piano teacher; if I'd live closer, I'd give you those piano lessons for free. I hope you learn to play soon. Marly

I have always wanted to learn how to make a quilt. However, I cannot sew too good, and I seem to have ten thumbs even when I try to sew buttons on. In fact, I only sew buttons on in June. LOL Marly

I really, really want to learn to make water tight baskets. I also want to learn how to weave blankets.

Well, I went and bought tap shoes today and last night I ordered a dvd so that I can learn. I am going to make my sis learn with me. I figure it will be good exercise, at least all the laughing we will be doing.
Dawn in IL- I love what you posted. I hope you hubby is agreeable, my hubby never wanted to learn to dance.

Oo I love stained glass. I hope you give it a try!
I think ballroom dancing would be fun. Shall we watch for you on Dancing with the Stars?

I would love to speak spanish fluently. I live in a small town with a growing spanish population due to the factories here. Home to Ashley Furniture Industries and Gold-N-Plump chickens.

Melanie, I wish were neighbors. I'd love to help you to learn to knit!
I've been thinking about this--what I want to learn to do, and though sewing is up there, there really isn't much else. Is that silly? I feel content right now!
