September workshop with Martha Sands

Guild member and SWOBG programme organizer Martha Sands taught members to weave a small basket around a glass jar using locally-gathered materials. Martha discussed how to harvest, dry, prepare and weave with willow and birch bark, sweetgrass, rush, sedges and iris and lily leaves. The everyone completed a beautiful and natural container.

I’m no longer making baskets and have an abundance of reeds, seagrass and handles. Would your guild be interested in taking them off my hands.
