Baskets 2014

Happy New Year!  After a post holiday break from weaving, exhibiting and selling my baskets, it's time to resume my passion - making baskets 2014. 
 
 
This colorful basket is built from a wooden oval base with colored flat reed spokes.  Using a variety of flat and round reeds the sides are raised.  It showcases basic over-under weaving  plus some triple twining.  A wooden handle is added.  The resulting basket is a colorful market style basket.
