I finished this little reed basket today. It’s about 9”x6”x 5” to 7” deep. Perfect for storing mail or other odds and ends. This was my first original design, made it up as I worked it.

Taught myself to weave inkle bands this past week. Now I’m making some to use as handles on future baskets.

Tote basket I made with several sizes and styles of reed and really accented with an inkle band my mom wove used as a handle. Guess I’m learning how to weave inkle bands next 😊

Finished up this big wicker picnic basket. Mostly fun, at times very frustrating. Learned a ton making this one!

I’m still a beginner at tapestry. Here are a few of my favorite tapestries that I have made.

My first try at a supplemental warp and a little bit of pulled warp for even more 3 D texture. Inspired by the Velella velella that arrive on the California beaches when the wind is just right.
