  1. Thanks for updating and creating a Master Vansteaders Craft List for us. I have started to blog about some resources and shared a video on Cordage Basketry to start off my Craft List.

  3. I am looking forward to posts on these different crafts. Some I already do, but others look very interesting. Afraid I don't have time to teach or post on the ones I do, but what a great idea. I am taking care of my brother that is terminal, so all my spare time is with him. Stay safe.
