Sample Hen basket by Sharon Schaeffer |
Each afternoon I taught a group to weave a hen basket during week one of Common Ground on the Hill. The yearly two week event is held at McDaniel College.
It was a fun week of socializing and relaxing while learning a new craft. Some class members were beginners while others had experience weaving baskets, but not this style of rib basket.
Everyone selected colors and patterns to individualize their basket. Friday evening all the baskets were on display as part of the Student Art Show.

Your class display at the Student Show was beautiful. Great teacher=happy and accomplished students. Love the color choices you had available to make these great baskets.
