Blind Krafters Division. I am shairing our flier with you, below, for
you
to distribute, throughout your state and at your state convention. We
are

using tactual skills. Those who used to depend on their sight to
craft,
now can learn to craft, by using their sence of tutch.</DIV>
<DIV>
Please help us out, by shairing with people of all ages.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thank you.</DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The National Federation of the Blind Krafters Division was established
in
July 2008. This organization began its inception from Joyce Kane's
desire
to share the love of crafting among individuals who are blind and visually
impaired. The K in Krafters is a tribute to our founder, Joyce
Kane.
We meet via a conference call each Monday night at 7:30 PM Eastern.
The
general conference chat line is 605-475-4000, participant access code
966659. Our Monday night chats are open to members and non-members
alike. We discuss crafting and blindness related topics. We
offer
crafting classes via conference call and email. Our classes are taught
by
and for visually impaired individuals, meaning detailed verbal description
is
given. If an individual is interested in our classes, but not sure if
they
would like to join our division, we offer one trial class of their choice
for
free. Our yearly membership dues are $20. By joining our
division,
you may take as many classes as you like during the membership year.
We
have offered classes in the following categories: needle knitting, loom
knitting, crochet, beading/ jewelry making, safety pin beading, quilting,
sewing, basket making, kumihimo, clay, plastic canvas, felting, latch
hooking,
macramé, origami, soap making, and other miscellaneous crafts.
Presently,
classes are managed via our website www.krafterskorner.org<<A
