[nfbwatlk] Some practical questions

[Becky Frankeberger]

May I point you to the Krafters Korner a proud division of the National
Federation of the blind.  These lovely blind people teach all kinds of
things over the phone and by email.  I learned to my total shock how to make
beeded bracelets. Others have learned to crochet, knit, make soap, safety
pin beeding sow on a sewing machine etc. More advanced techniques are shown
also. I for example, am teaching starting Wednesday, how to cro-hook via
email.  First classes are free, the email list is free, the Monday night
classes/chats are free, dues are ten dollars a year.  With that ten dollars
you can take as many classes you wish a year.

Hi,
I had a home ec teacher in jr. high and high school who taught us to do hand
sewing but wouldn't allow the totally blind girls to use the machine.  I
insisted on it, so she let me make an apron but then I had to donate it to
the school.  So I never learned to sew back then and so far, haven't found
anyone to show me how.  Bummer because I wanted to!

I'm glad my mom taught me to crochet.  I just finished a project for my
daughter, Lynden, who is getting married next weekend!
Thanks
Lauren

The most basic of all human needs is the need to understand and be
understood. The best way to understand people is to listen to them.
