This was made at a workshop taught by Billy Ray Sims at the Essex Shipbuilding Museum in Essex, Massachusetts. It was my first basketry workshop and my first fully completed basket. The #12 gauge wire was the biggest challenge and I credit Billy for all his help!

Artist Statement:
As a quilter for 30 years, and working embroidered wool felt for even more, my interest in basketry was inevitable. I am most content when working with my hands and creating something beautiful and useful.
