As a kid, I do not remember doing much crafts.  I still remember that pencil
holder made of a can, covered with popsickle sticks, my mom kept on her desk
at work.  I'm sure I made cards for her.  My mom tought me to knit.  We made
my one and only afcan.  Sorry to say, it got destroyed by the use of the
family and dogs clawing at it!
I went on to make a doll blanket for 2 of my sisters.  Either my mom or a
friend, stitched their names on the their blanket.
I was the most crafty, in the family.  One of my sisters took up clay, but
the kilm finally was shut down.  I have a few of her pieces!
In cindy's class, we were talking about items we had as kids.  I do not know
if this is a craft, but I built houses and churches, out of American bricks.
It would have been neet to be a blind designer!
Mom!  I bet you never thought I could learn to knit, loom knit and even sell
my work!
Hope you are proud of me!!!
The NFBKK has turned me into a crafter!!!
I miss you Mom!

Terry Powers

                Happy Wednesday to all you crafters out there.

 

We are having a beautiful day here in northwest Arkansas; it is sunny, warm
and there is just enough breeze to feel nice.

 

As you all know Mother's day is coming up, so our questions will deal with
that very special day.  Feel free to answer none, one or all of the
questions.

 

What is your favorite hand crafted gift made by your child?

 

What type of things have you made for your mother?

 

Did your mother teach you a craft and if so what was it?

 

Do you and your mother craft together and if so what kind of projects do you
enjoy sharing?

 

What words of wisdom would you most want to share with your child?

 

What would you like to say or do for your mother to express your love?

 

Also if you like, please describe a memorable moment that you shared with
your mother or with your child.

 

I'm really looking forward to reading the responses  I sure wish Joyce's Mom
would share with us; she must have so much wisdom.

 

Nella
