I do at the senior's fair. Many ask how I learned my skills and I tell them about the crafters corner, whether blind or not. I almost had a member for our group, but she moved to Florida. Someone in florida can try to find her. Her name is Mary Walker.

You are talking about your work which is great. How about talking about where you have learned how to do it? NFB Krafters Division needs to be talked about too.

Carol segal and I demo our crafts at the MD senior fair, for the last 2 or 3, years.
I craft in the public and I talk about what I do and what the blind can do, when ever I get the chance. Many are intrigued with my work and how even my stitches are on my plastic canvas projects. I sold a baby set, because a shuddle driver saw me knitting on the bus and asked me about my work. I brought in my baby sets and she bought one for her February grand baby!
Hoping to get a table at my state convention. Send me some luck, please!

I am a bit disappointed and don't understand, we have less paid members for the NFB Krafters Division this year then we had last year at the same time. By the end of this week Krafters Korner will have offered 42 classes this year and where else can you get that many classes for $10? You can't get one class for ten bucks. These are special teachers willing to teach you a craft class that are blind or deal with the blind and know how to put into words what your hands are suppose to be doing.
For those of you who have paid your membership dues, I thank you. For each and every one of you it is your job to spread the word to others about Krafters Korner, NFB Krafters Division, _www.KraftersKorner.org_
(http://www.KraftersKorner.org)
The more people you talk to and tell, the more people we will have for members to share, teach and learn crafting from.
If you have an NFB Convention in your state why don't you consider giving an NFB Krafters Division membership away as a door prize?
The more paid members we have, , the more different type of crafting experience will be here and more classes for everyone to learn from more teachers willing to teach.
