Everyone plays their own part in this Big Craft family.  I am sure I will miss some, but I am going to mention a few that are not here any more.  First, we would not be, who we are, if it were not for our founder, Joyce Kane!
Tonya Wheatly and Barb Roland tought me a lot about looming and I think, Cathy Henry and maybe Courtney, learned from them, so we can teach others.
I thank Cathy, Becky and Terry K for finally teaching  me the consept of crochet.  It took a few beginner classes, but, as we say, us blind folk, do not give up!
I came to KK, only knowing how to knit and I am not sure if I even knew how to purl.  I had no idea how to use a circular needle.
Teresa and Ken introduced me to safty pin beading!
Laurie Porter introduced me to beading.
I have made a lot of friends.  Hopefully, I will be able to meet, to of my crochet and looming buddies, at convention, Terry K and Jill.  
I love hearing about Nell's success on the farm.  I know I could never handle a farm!
I miss our buddy, Jake, talking to his friends, on the list.
I could go on and on, but it is time for me to stop.
Everyone has played a big part in Krafters Korner, teaching, taking classes, caring for our web site, running our list serve and log, our Wednesday question and now all that is going on to prepare for our tenth aniversery!

I thank Dixie for all the new knitting stitches, she has tought me, and also Joyce

Guess what?

Yes, it is Wednesday and time for another question.  

I have to confess that I would have totally forgotten if Dear Becky hadn't reminded me of the date.  Since she was so kind to act as my secretary I'm going to use her question.

Who do you admire from KK and what have you learned from them?

You can tell us about any member, teacher or board member.  Here is a wonderful opportunity for us to let each other know how much we appreciate everyone here.

As usual I'm looking forward to reading everyone's responses.

I appreciate lots of people here, but I'm going to mention Becky first because almost every week she sends me a reminder email and most of the time I need it. lol

Thank you Becky.

I also appreciate Amy, Cindy, Cathy, Jessica and any others that send in Want To Know Wednesday questions.

I thank all of you.

Nella
