Welcome to all of the new
members.  Its really nice to
see how this list has grown.


Warmly,
Melissa R. Green and Pj
It is 'where we are' that
should make all the
difference, whether we believe
we belong there or not.

Yes,  and I was very
interested in how many things
can be made with beads and
safety pins.  I was the one
who made the suggestion about
the cover/lamp shade for the
night lights that I made at
camp last week.  I also called
in a couple of weeks ago
regarding the call about using
jars and what can be put in
them.  I was sorry I missed
the call about leather crafts,
but I was on the road
traveling at that time
somewhere in South Carolina
and service goes in and out
when one goes from one tower
to the next.  I participated
with making the origami CD
cover that turned out well.  I
haven't had the chance to pay
my dues, but will do that
either tonight or tomorrow.  
I want to do more crafts and
try my hand at the labs from
beads.  So I'd better get
going on paying my dues.

Annely

 We had a good crowd at
 last night's chat.  The chat
is at 9 PM Eastern  time.
 Is that when you called in?

 Was there a chat last night? 
MMy phone was  out and I guess
I missed it. I  tried to
access it with my cell phone,
but, kept getting "first
caller"
 message.  I assumed the phone
 outage was wide spread. 
Sorry I missed it.

 Welcome Annely;
 
 This is Terry Powers from
MD.  I was at the  chat, last
night.
 I do loom knitting, hand
 knitting, plastic canvas,
some beading and am a
beginner at crochet. I have
also done some  safty pin
beading.  Right now, I have 3
strips for the Navy hospital,
in the works, a prayer  shawl,
and learning the loom
ornaments.  Is  that enough?
 Two of the stirps are closed
to
 done, I just do not want to
go past the  length they
want.  I also want something
small  to cary around, so I
started  another!
 
 Terry Powers

 Hi Everyone!
 
 (I hope I am doing this
right.)  Although I  have been
on the Monday night calls, I
haven't posted here until now.
 
 My name is Annely Rose and I
am in Florida.  I  have done
some crafting in the past, but
it  has been a long time.  I
was busy with raising kids,
working,  and taking care of
my husband before  he passed. 
I used to knit and crochet,
but  that was ages ago.  I
have made some braille cards
and last  week I did some
safety pin beading at  camp. 
When I was a kid, my
neighborhood  friends and I
used to make different craft
projects: a Christmas wreath
made from tissue paper and a
wire coat hanger, leather
belts, baskets,  and other
things I don't remember.  The
projects I did  as a  child I
used my partial vision, but
now  I am totally blind for
the past
5  years so  it will be a
learning experience for me.  I
look forward  to learning new
things to do.  I may get my
daughter-in-law and
14-year-old granddaughter
involved, too.  I look forward
to spending time on the Monday
night calls  and doing
projects.  I think that's
enough for now.  God bless you
all.
 
 Annely

  What about making tactile

 Well, you may not be
  the best calligrapher
 now, but all of the other
stuff  is still quite  doable.
Before you know it,  you'll be
teaching us.

 Michelle,
  
  You don't
 have to have the
  family tell you it is
 alive. Feel of it. Feel of 
the soil. Feel for the
blooms. It will actually  love
you for all  that love  and
affection.
  When you feel a
 dead leaf, remove it. Or,
dead blooms.
  
  What crafts did you enjoy
 
 before becoming blind? I'll
bet one of us knows  how to
do that same craft as a blind
person.
  Give us a try and see (big
 
 smile).
  
  Greg

  I  have been blind
  for 11 years and have gotten
away from doing  craft 
things. However, I keep
thinking of  the  Holiday
Wreaths we did at rehab 
school. I  came up with a
idea to make a  pattern to
wrap  and make  the bows  we
affixed to the  wreaths.  It 
turned out to be a  good
fundraising project  for the
school.
  
  Last month I  got up the
nerve to put a  hanging plant
on my front porch.
  For
 years,
  hanging plants on the porch
became
 a  usual site for my 
neighbors. My
 family
 tells me it still lives  and
has blooms. I  guess I  am
returning to  that creative
side of me. While  I  am
thinking about it,  I  better
go an  water it.
