Hi all,

My name Is Ashley and I am not new to nfb, but new to the list. 
I am a young adult who is job exploring and willing to take most entry level job I am qualified for although my interests lie in communications, event coordination, and outreach but I’m fine being a clerical assistant for now.

My interests include reading, writing, bible study, card games, and bowling.
I also enjoy working out. I’m looking for a craft to try and thought I’d join this list for a bit to gain ideas.

I have had some craft exposure through public school and various camps, for the blind or not.
I had to stitch a small pillow together while at some girl baptist camp. I’m not baptist, but went because they were encouraging vision impaired people to come and they would provide guides.
I’ve also worked with a small loom to make a hat at our state center. I’ve worked with clay making various things but mainly I made pinch bowls and painted them after they were fired.
At school we did a little work with beads and weaving.

I am considering taking a class at a community center in beading, other jewelry making, knitting or pottery.
I could not do pottery at home though as we do not have a kilm. So maybe jewelry or weaving or knitting would be more realistic.

I want to find a new hobby. I’m not sure I have the patience for the tedious task ofknitting or crocheting. but worth trying it.
Crafts often take concentration and time. While I am willing to devote some time, I do not have hours to do something, and I think it takes hours to knit or crochet.

Anyway, that  is some about me and I have lots of questions.

Ashley
