[Nfb-krafters-korner] Who is interested in hot air balloons?

[Barb Roland]

Hi Terry, I'm from Missouri and yes have recently joined the Krafters 
korner, I'm hoping to learn some crafts that are fairly easy for a visually 
impaired person to learn, need something to keep me busy during the winters 
when we are snowed in, lol The safety pin beading has really peaked my 
interest
