Intro to Pine Needle Basket Making

Instructor, Toni Ivy
Wednesdays, March 25 & April 1
10 am – 12 noon

“Learn to make a pine needle basket. Your first basket will be approximately 4 inches in diameter and 3 inches tall. This method is akin to hand sewing. You will bundle several pine needles together and sew the bundles to each other in an increasing spiral to form a flat bottom and then gradually work upwards to create the sides of the basket. Materials needed are pine needles, artificial sinew, sewing needles, and optionally, a focal bead or button for the center of the base of your basket. You can expect to complete your basket in two sessions”.

The fee for the two-day class is $65 which includes all supplies. Class size is limited to 8 students.
