[Nfb-krafters-korner] Elm Creek Quilts and quilting

[River Woman]

Yes, you can sew anything. I created a complex skirt and a linen wrap when I 
was at the Blind and Vision Rehabilitation Services in Homestead, PA. I had 
taken my own machine with me to the school. I had sewn all my life. but, 
after doing those two projects I decided I wanted to move on with my life 
and that sewing was no longer one of my passions. I gave my machine to my 
daughter. But, you can sew if you want to. There is a video I had posted her 
some months ago about a blind woman who is famous for her quilts - YES, you 
can do it.  Lynda River Woman
