[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Success Saturday

Mon Sep 28 16:36:50 UTC 2020

Very good Ari and Husband, good luck with those classes.
Since we are on the subject of what classes that we'd like to see being taught here, I'd still like to see some Leather crafting classes.
thanks.

Sounds like fun. I signed up for a pottery class once, and I was the only one to get my first pot off of the whel with a bottom in it. The teacher was extremely critical, because it wasn't perfectly strait. I went a second time and it just wasn't any fun with her negative attitude. I'd love to take another class. I would also love to learn wood carving. When I took a wood working class in college, carving out the places for the hinges gave me a taste of the wood shaping.

Well, it's not finishing something, it's starting to learn something knew--but my husband and I just started taking classes at our local pottery studio last Saturday, and began learning how to throw pots. :) It's been a lot of fun, and I can't wait until our next class this Saturday. We signed up for a package of four classes.

Thanks,
Ari

My granddaughter has designed a tag that says gift bag, wash, dry, and reuse!  and people will receive multiple bags. Besides, it gets me off my backside because I can do much of it on the knitting machine. And it is very rewarding because finishing each one is fun. They are stacked in sizes like clothes used to be in department stores. No two bags are alike. I have five sizes. I had to work pretty hard to find more Christmas yarn, but I got three boxes in the mail this week which also was fun! And a large part of my Christmas shopping is happening at the same time. I found sparkle yarn by Simply Soft and I Love This Yarn. Anybody know other places that make sparkle or glitter yarn?
