[Ruth Reynolds]

HI SHELLEY,

    THANK YOU FOR THE WELCOME!

    THE WEAVING TEACHER WAS THRILLED TO HAVE ME, SHE HAD TAKEN SPECIAL CLASSES TO TEACH THOSE WHO ARE BLIND AND HAVE LOW VISION, AND ADAPTED AS MY NEEDS CHANGED, OR PUTTING ME NEXT TO A WINDOW IF A PRESENTATION WAS BEING DONE AND THE LIGHTS IN THE LARGE ROOM NEEDED TO BE DIMMED.
     I DIDN’T KNOW THAT WEAVING WAS *THAT* OLD, BUT I WAS VERY HAPPY TO BE DOING AN ART FORM THAT I KNEW WAS VERY OLD.

SINCERELY,
RUTH
