Saturday &

Annual Basket Boutique. The
“Gallery” and “Store” will both be open. |
Classes are for
adults only and start at 8:00 a.m., rain or shine. Wear
layers, because we often start the class “cool” and end up “warm”! You might wish to bring insect repellent, since we
are outdoors. Bring your tools: shears or
scissors, tape measure, basket tool (or screwdriver), needle-nosed pliers, and
clothespins. Bring a plastic bag to put your
stained basket in. Feel free to bring a drink
and/or a little snack, since class usually runs through the noon hour. If you are unable to attend a specific class on
the regular date, we will be happy to schedule a special class for four or more people.
Weavingly yours,

| A little bit about
us – We have been weaving for over 18 years and have taught classes for 16 years. Ronda has been a teacher at the Indiana
Basketmakers Convention, the Missouri Basketmakers Convention, and workshops in Kentucky. We have taught classes under the canopy on IXL
Lake since 1994. We are both school teachers. Ronda teaches 1st Grade and Jim teaches
high school German. We have 5 children and
have been deeply involved with soccer for nearly 30 years!
We enjoy our summers Up North and look forward to the excitement of
the basket classes. If you have never made a
basket, do come and join us. You leave class
with a finished basket! |
