More Baskets

New Bern, NC

Uh oh.  We've gotten complaints.   Jenny complained that we have become lax in photographing and posting pictures of Libby's baskets.   She's right.   Libby hasn't slowed down in making baskets, but we've neglected taking pictures.  To make up for that, here are her latest ones.

Not a nest egg, but an egg nest.






By the way, the basket below is not Libby's.  It was made by Libby's friend Sharon.  Isn't it nice?  Even better, they are Sharon's very first baskets.   Wow!   Sharon did two things Libby hasn't tried yet.  She used a single stitch rather than the "wheat stitch" that Libby likes.  The single stich is much faster and easier.  She also used beads creatively.  Libby says that after the batch above, she too will try some of those techniques.

  2. It takes Libby 1-3 days, perhaps 4-12 hours, depending on the size of the basket.

    Hugs,
