[Nfb-krafters-korner] Current Project

[Jewel S.]

It'd be awesome if everyone would submit their favourite braille
drawing directions. There's one I found on-line that makes the Eiffel
Tower. Anyone seen that one? I also know one that makes an angel, and
I made a castle (a rather...childish one) basically out of full
Braille cells and empty spaces, staggering them in groups of four to
make a "brick" pattern.
