[Nfb-krafters-korner] Laurie and Lynda's fault

[Laurie Porter]

Someone has been bitten by the bead bug. Grin shows are both a great and 
dangerous place to do that.  I always have to limit myself to a strict 
budget, but bead shows are great places to go and talk with the sellers, see 
and feel finished  projects and attend exhibits and demonstrations. I'm glad 
you had a wonderful experience and I am always happy to share my pashon and 
open the beading world to anyone who is interested.
