 I would like to see a library of paterns and how to do and things like all the imfo about yarn types.  Reference material.  We do not really need recordings, just material, in language we can understand, that we can refer to.  People can contribute to the library at their own free will.  A $20 membership would give you access to the library.
We could just raise   our membership.  Just think about it.  We are getting each class for $1.00 to $2.00 per class if it were $20.00.  It is a steal now and still would be a steal at that price.  Where can you take a class for that price, nowhere!!!
Think about what I am saying or lets get roling on fund raising!

Joyce,
good points. I wondered that too. I think that when someone suggested raising dues to pay for membership and other expenses, others jumped in about classes. Good points; the classes aren't recorded and plans are not in place to do so.

I guess people got over speculative and hopeful past classes would be recorded and sold. Personally, I don't think it’s a good idea. Do record it for those in the class so they can review it or if they miss a phone call, they can catch up. That's my suggestion; but I don't think it’s a good idea to record and sell phone calls. I know I speak more freely when things aren't recorded and to record you'd need all participant's permision which I doubt all will agree to.

Anyway, good luck fundraising.

I want to ask how a conversation went from talking about a list of reference material posted on the Krafters Korner website  got to changing the price and classification of membership and prices of classes?

Let me say I  didn't know anything about this and I haven't been  online over the weekend and Ithink folks are talking about this and it comes  down to as things stand right now recordings, patterns and information on pass classes are not available to people unless they took the class and saved that information themselves.  It is not available for sale or anyone.

We have spoken about in the future doing something with classes, but until it is figured out by the board and people are in place to edit recordings, and  agreements are made with everyone involved this is not even being considered at  this time.  When it is considered it will have nothing to do with what has  been done in the past.

Right now I need all of you to help figure out how to pay our expenses and that is a tough one since we don't have any idea how much our expenses will be  until we have a year under our belts.
