A few years ago I did a basketry workshop with Jill Brose, who is an experienced fibre artist with exhibitions nationally.
She is running another workshop in July, so I thought I would give her a 'plug' on my blog!
DATE: Sunday 18th July 2010
VENUE: FIBRECRAFT HOUSE, 12 Payne St, Auchenflower
FEE: $70 (includes materials)
"No experience required - only enthusiasm. This informal and flexible workshop, encourages you to express your own creativity, to make baskets from plant materials, many of which are found in your own gardens.
Two baskets will be woven in the day so that you will learn two very different methods of weaving a basket.
The workshop will commence with a talk on the different fibres suitable for our craft. How to collect, store and soak them before weaving."
For more information: Phone Jill 3369 8367 or Email: jillbrose@gmail.com
Hi Sandra,
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog. I weave with reed but I really like the freeform style of your baskets. Great texture and beauty.
