[Nfb-krafters-korner] Friday's question a little early

[Dan Brewer]

Hi to All,
I seem to be like most of you. I see my project and then try to 
create it.  Sometimes others see what I have tried to create and 
sometimes it isn't the same to them.  I figure it is because the 
others only look with their eyes and I look with my hands, ears, and 
what is useful.  lol

Really, I have an image of what I want before I start most things.  I 
am wondering if this is the same for those who have never seen.  I 
can remember yellow and blue and go from there.  But not seeing ever 
might make a difference in how one sees their ideas.

I know my dear friend who had never seen, would never own anything 
brown. She was sure brown was an ugly color. Her heair was brown and 
so was dirt. lol

We never changed her mind.
