[Nfb-krafters-korner] fun with foam

[Dan Brewer]

Wow, I would have loved to be on that shopping rtrip. You got some 
great things.  I am at home, but I found a new material to work with.

My Husband's supplies came in and I was changing some of his tubes 
and hoses.  He suggested I find some creative uses for all the little 
things we don't need and throw away.  I took an oxygen hose and sat 
wo down with my huge knitting needles.  It is a bit stiff to work 
with but makes a very pretty patern.  Great for a bag with an 
inserted piece of cloth or a clear plastic mat.  I really like the 
cost being picked up by my insurance company. lol

So if you know sommeone on oxygen ask for the extra tubing.
