Distance Can't Keep Crafters Down

I moved to the East Coast and left friends and family behind.  I post on Facebook, Twitter, have this blog, text, g-chat, talk on the phone A LOT.  But sometimes that's not enough.  My best friends and I craft.  and craft hard.  Christy can paint, draw, crochet, decopage, and if there's something she wants to learn she does it.  Emily cross stitches better than almost anyone I know - and now has a computer program to design her own cross stitch patterns for herself and her mom (who also cross stitches AMAZING pieces).  Then I moved and we lost some of the ability to be able to collaborate face to face.

But Christy, genius that she is, started a blog for us where each week we come up with a small "mission" that will prolly include some kind of craft so that even though I'm so far away we can still show each other what we've been working on and joke and laugh.

And even though I'm far away we still have a way to craft together.  Sappy yes...but totally awesome.  So while there's knitting groups and things out here, there's no reason why you can't craft long distance too.
