Stateline Friends Weaving Retreat 2017!

April 13, 2017/1 Comment/in Out and About with Basket Weavers /by Annetta K

Stateline Friends Weaving Retreat 2017 – I’m home sorting through my carload of stuff and a camera full of pictures. For those of you who missed this event – I am sorry. Hopefully you can join us next year. For those of you who were able to attend – it was great fun wasn’t it!?

This event is always bustling with energy. People talking.  People laughing. People weaving baskets. People teaching basketry. People shopping for basket supplies.

So I moved my ‘studio’ to the deck.
