[Nfb-krafters-korner] pin question

[Blindhands at aol.com]

Yes, I contacted Sherry Osborn,  and told her that I hoped she could  put 
into words her patterns.  She starts off with the first 2 safety pins  in 
words, but then you are on your own with the picture.  I went on her  blog and 
you can get there from the website and I posted a note on the blog  besides 
sending her an email and I had asked her if she could do the St. Patty's  
Day ones and a few others.  She did do them and sent me a notice when it  was 
done.  She has so many great ones and I wish everyone would go and make  
contact with her and ask her to put into words more of her patterns.  I  found 
if you ask her to do certain ones she responds better then if you just  
generalize on the patterns.  I had a made contact last August and was  hoping 
for Halloween and Christmas ones, but it did not happen.  So I asked  again 
after the beginning of the year.  She needs to hear from other blind  people 
that we really love her patterns and need words so we can enjoy doing and  
sharing with family and friends.
 
I asked her to do the ballet slippers and she did that one, too.
 
I will leave another note for her and pick out some others to ask her to  
put into words.

Joyce  and all,

I think I remember you commenting on a website that your wrote  to about
making their patterns accessible for low vision and needed  information. On
Family Crafts, Sherry Osborn, has a link to safety pin  patterns, from a to
z, some of the patterns have a pattern, like Easter  pins that tell you 
place
2 pink 4 white, etc. Not off them, like when you  go to N and get Noah's ark
pattern, there is only a picture, that you need  sight for to transfer to
accessible pattern. Did you email this site and  they converted pattern for
you? I do not see any place on this sight to  contact author, is this the
site your wrote to when we did the heart pins?  If it is, please let me know
how you contacted them, please. There are so  many patterns for pins on this
sight but only the newest ones are  accessible, therefore, if anyone wants
Easter patterns there are quite a  few there, from basket, bunnies and
chicks, to follow to use for other  things other than pins.
