This Spring some of our guild members have been able to once again attend conferences in person.
The Stowe Basketry Festival and The OHS Spinning Conference recently took place.
One of our members, Carole Neeley, spent a busy week creating spectacular baskets from several different instructors. Different techniques and basketry fibres were used….ash and reed.
The 5 Rolled Rim Basket was taught by Flo Hoppie
The Black and White Hour Glass Basket was taught by Diane Stanton
The Miniature Shaker Baskets were taught by Jo Ann Kelly Catsos
The Beaded Nantucket Basket was taught by Kathy Petronzio
The Spinners happily attended this year’s Spinning Conference held in Burlington.
It was great to see people together again and to be able to share their fibre experiences in person.
Here are some photos from the conference.
