Basket Day! The Northwest Basketweavers Guild sponsors a day of classes, and students only have to pay the materials fee, so it's a good opportunity to learn something new. It's also a good time to just sit and visit with members, and work on your own project. It takes place at the Good Shepherd Park in Seattle, in the picnic shelter near the Tilth Gardens. The building in the background was once used as a nunnery, a school, and various other uses. Not sure what is in it now.

I took a class making a tray with willow. Above is Teresa, Sharon, Mary, me and Carol, with teacher Bill Roeder behind us.
Bill had a good time with our class as Mary trims her tray.
Carol lays in the beginning weavers.
All of our finished trays! They were pretty quick to make, but lovely!
