Excerpt from Craft Corps (Chapter 14):
"VH: The CRAFT website is always really supportive of the craft community, posting multiple links per day to designers' work. In the future, what role do you see the site having in perpetuating that community further?
NZD: I would hope to see more of a diologue with our readers. I'd like our community to reach that next level where we post cool projects but also hear what readers want, and giveit to them. Tools like blogs, Facebook, and Twitter make that attainable.
VH: How do you think new media has affected crafting for everyday crafters?
NZD: I wish it had been available back then when I was learning all this stuff. Right now, it's wonderful to go online, research how to do one little stitch, and get a video that teaches you something as you work on a project. Or, if you have a question, Ravelry is a great place to post it to a forum. Community is out there; when you're home by yourself and don't really know how to do something, you can quickly learn to do it on the Web."

ReplyDeleteI started my subscription with Craft #10. It would be great to have the whole series and take them to work - the Weavers Guild of Minnesota. I'm sure the series would be loved by everyone!
ReplyDeleteI also love how the craft world shares techniques on-line. What a blessing :-]

Because of craft I have been really inspired to finally take the plunge and turn my crafting into business. Craft has shown that both traditional and contemporary crafting is still fun, can be trendy and does have a market to those who do not have time space or patience to create for themselves.
ReplyDeleteCraft and the new craftzine ROCK MY WORLD!
These are awesome. I would love to craft my way through this set.
