[Nfb-krafters-korner] Hi from a new member.

Welcome Pipi 
 
 
 
I will be brief as I just popped on the computer and need to rush out the  
door in a few.
 
Classes are done here via telephone conference call.  You only need  the 
computer at this point to get emails and go to the website to sign up for an  
upcoming class.
 
Most of our teachers are visually impaired/blind and teach the class from  
their experiences.
 
How are you making the lap and bedspread?  Are you knitting, sewing or  
what?  I have just taught a small crochet project class and poking around  for 
some more after the holidays.

Hey  y'all,
I joined the list a couple of days ago and thought I should  introduce 
myself.
I'm Pipi, from Kansas. I wanted to join the list  because I've always 
wanted 
to learn how to crochet. I attempted to have my  mom teach me years ago, 
but 
it didn't work for us. She didn't know how to  teach a blind person and I 
didn't have enough vision to see what she was  talking about.
As far as crafts go, I have made several throw blankets and  have been 
working on my own queen sized quilt for years. I don't know if  I'm 
actually 
making an actual quilt because I don't know the proper way to  do so, but I 
decided that I wanted to make myself one for my bed and went  from there.
I also do a bit of scrapbooking, mainly for my daughter's  keepsakes and 
record of her life.
How do I go about learning to  crochet? I've noticed some classes that have 
happened and that will be  happening in the future. Can someone give me a 
bit 
more information as to  what these are about?
Thanks for reading if you made it this far.
Pipi
