Earlier this year, I finally taught myself to make woven baskets. My Dad and GrandDad made baskets, Dad always tried to teach me, but I was a teenager way back then with no interest . Now that I'm in my 50's, Dad's been gone for years and I wish I had paid more attention . This is a pic of my latest basket - I was feeling "Christmasy"

All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.

That basket looks great!! I make baskets also.

What did you make it out of? It looks like you used some ribbon.
Do you have pictures of more baskets?

I love baskets..
and I enjoyed making them...
*I used to go to basket weaving parties
at my sister's, and that was a very long time
ago for me too...*

Love those colors..
Do you have more baskets you've done???
