About

Learn to prepare seasoned barks for a plaited platter with shallow or deep sides. Meditative rows of twining define the sides and swirls of your basket. Learn the innovative chase weave developed by your instructor while she designed this basket. The edge treatment, bordered with roots or barks, will be thoughtfully chosen for each piece. These remarkable containers are woven to become both a serving piece on the table, or displayed artfully on the wall. The basket incorporates a variety of willow barks, and roots and threads for the border.

Details

Skill Level: Intermediate. Some experience with basketmaking is recommended.

Details

A $135 materials fee, included in the cost of the class, covers the barks, roots, and thread that are hand-selected by your instructor.

Class Policies

Ages 14 and up are welcome.

Instructor
Judy Zugish

The soul of Judy’s baskets begin in her garden. Her growing education started in 1976 and persists today in her fiber arts garden in Snohomish County where she cultivates, harvests, and creates woven forms, large and small. She exhibits, teaches, and travels widely on the pathway of basketmaking, most recently in May 2023 when she brought her willow bark skills to basket weavers in New Zealand. You can visit Fishsticks Basketry School, the gardens, and Judy’s artworks in person and at www.twigtwisters.com.
