>> Wow, Bernice, I'm sorry to hear you had such an awful time with that pottery teacher. This lady is really nice and we work together well. If I don't quite get one explanation, she tries another. My husband, who is fully sighted, helps as well. She seems very people-oriented, and like she really wants us to learn. I'm really looking forward to continuing classes with her.
>> 
>> I took woodshop in eighth grade. It was a lot of fun. I think I might like pottery better, though. :) Iremember my dad and I doing all the little woodworking projects at Home Depot. :) That was a lot of fun. You got a pin each time you completed a project. We made a little toolbox, little toy wheeled waggon that actually worked, a little box with a swing-up lid, a toy paddle boat thing that used rubber bands to run, a bird feeder, a birdhouse, and I don't remember what all else. It was loads of fun, though. I don't remember if we bought our tools through them or not, but I remember having that glue-spattered, paint-smeered apron with all those pins on it. :) I felt really proud each time we finished a project and I got another pin to add to 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.

We signed up for a package of four classes.

>>>>> To avoid boredom during pandemic, I took up making gift bags for Christmas presents. 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?
