[Nfb-krafters-korner] A Whole New Concept!

Fri Jan 14 12:24:01 UTC 2011

Linda;
I do not understand this consept.  If I edit a patern or write directions for the blind to understand, why in the world would I want it on a public web site.  I do not even know how to access this site.  Who controls what goes on the site.  If it goes on our own site, NFBKK has control of what goes on the site and that the material is accessable for the blind to read or understand.  Why go to another site when we have our own?

Terry P.

Definitely the place to share craft patterns! So easy to use and so easy to post there. Very good idea.
