[Nfb-krafters-korner] Current happenings

[Terry Knox]

This sounds so great, and really exciting. Thanks for the update on this,
your designs and your ideas sound excellent, love the idea about coloring in
the braille designed, maybe we could include a crayon. I am so thrilled with
what you are doing, and can not wait to hear how it will go over at
convention. You need to be congratulated for all you are doing on this
project.

Some of us are working on Braille greeting cards.  I am excited to see what
other people are doing.  I have hearts, cats, sailboats, trucks and flags,
teddy bears, and more.  Some of these figures can be combined.  We will find
out at convention what the response is.  I have showed them to some people
who really like them.  If there is time, I will offer the buyers a chance to
copy the words from the front in print.  Then the inside can have a personal
message in print or I will put it in Braille, again if there is time.  We
can also encourage buyers to send them to kids who may wish to color in the
Braille designs.  If this catches on at convention, we will have to talk
about marketing during the year.  Could be a real fun project and bring in
some money besides!

Hi Terry and all,

I miss hearing from everyone on the list as well. I check every day to see
what is happening. I haven't been doing any new crafty things so have had
nothing to say.
However, I am well, busy with morning exercise classes at the health club
and afternoons in the garden. Lately, I've been dodging thunderstorms as
well.

Hope others are doing well and hope to hear from you soon.  the first summer
after I joined the group I felt rather left out with all the talk of the
convention since I was not attending. However, folks assured me that I was
not the only one staying home and that helped. So if you are out there and
feeling left out, don't. most of us are still around waiting for classes to
start up again. My seven point snowflake macramé class will be in August,
though it is not up on the site yet, you can look forward to it. hopefully,
there will be other interesting classes coming up soon.

Cathy F
