Gallery of Gifts 2023

 

 

Once again, I will be participating in the Gallery of Gifts holiday Marketplace at the Carroll Arts Center.

This year my display features baskets made with the cathead base.  A "cathead" basket has four pointed feet on which it sits.  When held upside down, the feet give the impression of cat ears.   This design was first made by the Shakers who used molds to shape the basket.   I weave a traditional cathead base without the use of a mold to create baskets, containers and sculptural vessels.  

Here are just a few of my baskets for sale at the gallery.  

Fall Harvest of Quilts - 2022

 

I'm trying something new this weekend.  I will be vending my baskets at a quilt show this Friday through Sunday.  It is held at the Pleasant Valley Fire Company from 10am until 5pm (3pm on Sunday).  There will be a silent auction, raffles, vendors, boutique, members tables and refreshments.  The admission is $10.

I will be featuring some of my larger baskets suitable for holding finished quilts or quilting supplies.  Stop by and check it out.
