The Vanishing Art of Broom Making \u2026\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Broomcorn, broomsticks, turkey wing whisk brooms, hearth brooms, kitchen brooms, angel whisk brooms, broomstick cake and more all in a new book by basket maker, gourd artist and broom maker Karen Hobbs. \u201cSwept Away, the Vanishing Art of Broom Making\u201d is scheduled to be released this December (2017).<\/p>\n

From baskets to brooms.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Karen has been making things since her grandmother taught her to sew her own Barbie clothes on a treadle sewing machine. Crocheting, cross stitch, pottery, painting, embroidery – making things was part of life.\u00a0 When Karen got out of the Air Force in 1986, she added coiling pine needle baskets\"\"<\/a> to her long list of things to make.\u00a0 After moving to Austin in 1996, a friend at work introduced her to Jill Robinson and after taking classes for a few years, Karen started teaching basketry. By 2005, she was teaching at basketry conventions and retreats around the country.<\/p>\n

In 2007, Karen decided travel to North Carolina and take a class at the John C. Campbell Folk School.\u00a0 Cisco, her husband, decided he would like to come along and take a cooking class; so he started to look through the catalog and found a Cajun cooking class he was really interested in. \u00a0Unfortunately the Folk School was not offering a basket class the same week. What was Karen going to do?\u00a0 Try a broom class!\"\"<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

And she was hooked after the first day!\u00a0 She took copious notes, dug all the scrap broomcorn out of the garbage, took lots of pictures and she checked out all the brooms around the folk school. In the evening, back in her room, she made a cake tester broom with her broomcorn scraps all by looking at the cake tester broom in Cisco\u2019s kitchen classroom.<\/p>\n

Looking for more information about broom making, Karen went to the Folk School bookstore hoping to buy a book, but she was told that there were no broom making books available. In fact, all the copies of the last one written had vanished in a warehouse fire.\u00a0 This was the moment Karen decided to write her book<\/em>. The rest of the week she documented everything in class and started her ten year journey of making brooms and researching broom making.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Her decision to write the book may have seemed spur of the\u00a0moment to\u00a0everyone in her class that week, but she was dead serious. Initially, she was motivated by the fact that there were no books available. As she learned and experimented, she became more and more motivated. Karen wanted to share the art, knowledge, history and traditions of broom making. She wanted to encourage people to make a broom – to keep this vanishing traditional craft alive.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So, even though Karen was working fulltime as an operating nurse, she researched broom making every chance she got. She got to know a local broomcorn grower; his family had been growing broomcorn for generations and he willing shared his knowledge of broom history and photos.\u00a0 Karen and Cisco were able to travel to Arcoloa, Illinois for the Broom Corn Festival. And, while seeking master broom makers in the United States and overseas, Karen went to Alabama to study with the Thompson\u2019s and to learn how to dye broomcorn hurl.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>And Karen made brooms.\u00a0 She bought a kick winder and eventually a tine winder to aid her studio broom making. Five years ago (2012) Karen began teaching broom making.\u00a0 Her work is beautiful, traditional and yet, uniquely hers.\u00a0 A few years ago, I purchased one of Karen\u2019s brooms \u2013 it hangs in my kitchen. Now I can\u2019t wait to read her book!<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
