For the next couple of months, we are rotating the days to get a better idea of what works for people. The goal is to have two chats a month and on the same day of the week or two different days if that will work better. A craft related topic will be the focus to start the chat and then it can be open while we chat and work on whatever craft we bring to the chat.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='margin:0in'><span style='font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='margin:0in'><span style='font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>If you have topic ideas, please send them to Joyce at <a href="mailto:blindhands@aol.com">blindhands@aol.com</a> or Cindy at <a href="mailto:slerythema@gmail.com">slerythema@gmail.com</a>.
