Baskets


Here are two baskets. One from Blackbird designs and one slightly smaller that I thought I'd do for a group exchange requiring
a 4" block. Both sizes will be my on-going lunch time projects. I have wicker baskets all over the house and love to use them
for produce, garden harvesting, fabric collecting, quilts, towels, perfumes and the like. My favorite baskets have been found
while with someone special. I have a huge basket from the Napa Valley that I got with my daughter when she was 5. We filled
it while shopping for picnic treats and some herbs from a farm store. Another favorite is a huge basket that was filled when
I won it at my guilds holiday party. The fabric and the books in it I kept. The wine theme and accoutraments went to a co-worker
that has a hobby vineyard. Baskets are fun to get and give.
