CBBG February Workshop
Saturday, February 25th, 9am to 5pm
Sunday, February 26th, 9am to 1pm
Jo Ann Hart will present the workshop:
Cedar Wrap Around Plaiting Utility or Berry Basket

4 1/2 wide x 5 1/2 long x 5 1/2 tall and 28 diameter

Wrap around plaiting is a basket construction technique that was found on baskets from the NW coast that dated from 2500 to 3000 years ago. This technique was used most in large carrying baskets. This continuous weave cedar basket is very functional and would make a great berry gathering basket. Expect to learn a continuous weave pattern using a wooden mold (not included in class fee) and a folded and braided rim. A cedar tumpline rope can be added to the basket. Molds will be available for use or for sale at 25.00 each. We may not have time to finish the rope but everyone will learn how to finish it.
Length of class 1 and 1/2 days (12 hrs)
Workshop fee: $96.00
Cedar Basket material fee: $100.00
Cedar Rope Tumpline material fee: $25.00
