[NFB-Krafters-Korner] touchable Embroidery?

Thu Apr 9 15:11:08 UTC 2020

You have some great ideas here.  We also have a What's Ap group and a Facebook group...or maybe it is a page, I don't know.  With these options, as well as this group, we exchange lots of information and ideas, ask and answer questions and lots of stuff.  

What kind of jewelry are you thinking of?  There are so many different kinds of things to do with jewelry.  Leatherwork is fun, but not everyone has the tools.  My husband does lots of leather work and he has so many tools!  He just got an arbor press for Christmas, but he hasn't used it yet.

Anyway, I am glad to have you here.  Keep asking questions.

Hi 

Tried to find you on facebook so i could join in but can’t find you among all the groups with similar names. I usually do my crafts with my PA but as i can’t through all this are looking for osme help with people who cna teach me how to do crafts without needed eyes at all. I would love to learn how to do more embroidery stitches as i do hand embroidery and would love to learn more stitches but all the books are visual when they teach stuff. Does anyone know if there is a needle thread fee that i cna completley use without eyes as at the moment i have to ask a sighted family member to thread and knot the end of my thread every time i wish to do any work. I wish there was a kind of utube version for blind crafters where all could put up videos or do it through emails wiht llessons on how to do all kinds of different crafts including Quilting, patchwork, different embroidery, leather works, crochet, jewelry making and so on for us all. Also my sighted friends keep putting patterns up on line for different crafts which it would be brilliant if we could send these to a central palce where someone could they translate them with into writing instructions and videos that were accessable? 
Thanks amy
