Below is the mission from the Church of Craft website. It says all I need to say about why I created this community.
I am head of the Atlanta Chapter for the Church of Craft and an ordained minister, but everyone from all chapters and non-parishioners are welcome here. We are non-denominational.
Please feel free to post about crafts, art, projects, creativity in general and ask questions - we are here to help each other make amazing things first and foremost. Please keep your picture posting to one on the main post and everything else behind a cut tag, just so we don't junk up everybody's friends pages.
Please do not post just ebay links, this isn't a storefront. If your crafts are for sale, you may certainly let us know, but this forum is more about showing off your work and the exchange of ideas and methods. Have fun and show us what you can do.
I will not address subjects like spam, inappropriate material or aggressive acts - this is a Church after all.

"The Church of Craft aims to create an environment where any and all acts of making have value to our humanness. When we find moments of creation in our everyday activities, we also find simple satisfaction. The power of creating gives us the confidence to live our lives with all the love we can. By promoting creativity, we offer access to a non-denominational spiritual practice that is self-determined and proactive.
The Church of Craft maintains no dogma or doctrine beyond what every member believes for themselves.
The Church of Craft promotes any and all acts of creation as a means to live life best."
