What are some of your hobbies that you enjoy doing, that you can do at home?
I was in a huge coloring phase, but kind of put that off for a while as I got sucked into a reading phase! So that's my current hobby. There are other things I would like to try but that will have to be in the future.

I love shooting a random roll of film in my backyard. I work on our yearly family photo album- just 4x6 in sleeves- last year it was over 1000 photos so it's a lot of work. Cooking. In the past I've painted- mostly watercolor.

I rotate hobbies a lot. I did some coloring recently, and quilting, but have been doing more crochet most recently. It's easier to do while watching TV and DH and I have been watching the olympics.
I've been working on this wrap/scarf for the last week, but in a palate of corals instead of rainbow.

I do a lot of sewing and reading. Sometimes I color. When I'm not pregnant, I go to fitness classes and run with my daughter.

I'm 26 weeks pregnant with a 2 year old (and work full time), so sleeping. Sleeping is what I do when I have free time. Or baking

Scrapbooking, reading and sewing. I have a sewing project in mind but I need to get my house sorted out first.

Cake decorating. While I have gotten a few orders, I mostly do it for family and friends.

I rotate a lot. Coloring, calligraphy, sewing, knitting, and now learning to crochet.

I read a lot, have a couple of colouring books that haven't been touched in a while and have dabbled with writing in the past. Reading is the only thing that I've consistently done for as long as I can remember.
I'd LOVE to learn how to crochet amigurumi animals! Not sure I have the skills or the patience, but they are so cute!

@Synchronicity: if you can do basic crochet, you can totally make them! Start with a simple shape (I did a tube shaped dog).
The only hard/frustrating part is that it's usually done with little needles so you need good light and patience to find the right hole.

I color while watching TV in the winter, but mostly I like to sew.
I'm on a big quilting kick lately, made these two in the past month!

Since I'm 30 weeks pregnant, my hobbies are sleeping, putting my feet up, taking care of my toddler, and trying to keep up with cooking and housework. I have a couple of sewing projects that I need to finish before DD's birthday in October- this thread reminds me that I need to finish those ASAP!!! When I'm not pregnant I also like to read and help out on political campaigns.

I guess knitting, reading and baking. But I'm kind of a first trimester blob lately.

@ValentineMommy: right? I would like an amigurumi zoo.
@MaryM: I would have to brush up on my crochet skills first, but I did know how once upon a time. That's very encouraging though, thank you!!

@Synchronicity: my grandma crocheted that same fox for my son! Problem is, I let him play with it, and it didn't last more than a year 
so sad cause it's sooo cute.
Mostly reading! Full time working, full time student - so I don't have a lot of time for hobbies. I do try and workout pretty regularly. First trimester got me down to only about 2x/week though haha.

I like doing home improvements... refinishing cabinets, putting in new light fixtures, installing new floor, backsplashes, landscaping. It is an expensive hobby but I justify by saying it adds value. Plus it is fun to teach DD about tools.

Is Pinterest a hobby? Haha. Mine is reading and yoga. Some lifting but we have a small space so it's just dumbells, nothing fancy of super heavy but it's really fun to me (and free!). I really love to cook but I really hate standing in the same general spot for long-ish periods of times so I don't really do much of it aside from making 30 minute dinner.

Reading and crafting.
Right now my "hobby" has been home organization. I'm trying to declutter and organize my house. I am tackling one closet/space/room at a time. I'm trying to find ideas online about how to organize certain things - the best I've found so far is organizing all the warranties and manuals in binders and organizing cables/cords in large fishing bait/tackle boxes.
I feel like clearing out and organizing toys and kids clothes is a never ending project as well
Next on my list is to redo my pantry. I feel like I clean it every few months so I need to find a system where it just stays super organized all the time

I need to do something with the yarn stash I have, so I am going to make some dryer balls (wind them up and felt them) and then tassel garlands for Christmas. I really don't use knitted scarves and hats, so it's a challenge to find stuff to do with all this yarn I've accumulated. I have two skeins that i want to make into a knitted stocking.

I dabble a lot. Sometimes I get on a reading kick, got nice coloring books and pencils and a dedicated craft room. On a regular basis I made fleece blankets for a FB group in part of that makes blankets for boxers (dogs) in rescue/foster. And I guess making "fun shaped food" for LO is also a hobby
