[Nfb-krafters-korner] Classes

Tue Jan 4 12:37:30 UTC 2011

I have sent one or two sheets of plastic canvis, showing the steps of making a loop coaster.  It is shown in steps and the blind person can feal the stitches on the canvis and read directions on the computer or in braille.  Most do not even need the directions, especially if you ever have done plastic canvis, before.
Some, that have done it before, just need anexample of the finished item.

I am a total, and I will keep going till I get it one way or another. The assistance you get from everyone on this list is really a great help and encouragement.

Hi,

As a totally blind person, how difficult is it to keep up with the the pattern in doing the plastic canvas work? Are there any totals out there successful with these projects?
I would like to learn, but I am just not sure.
Take care,

Lucy

A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though he knows that you are slightly cracked.
