WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 2013

 Had our Northwest Basket Weavers Guild meeting tonight, and the program was a gallery owner talking about how and why she collects the baskets she sells, and the ones she keeps in her home. Sue Helmke, from Snow Goose Gallery, had lots of fun things to say about her baskets. I especially loved the two large Winnebago indian baskets on the table, woven with black ash splints, some of them dyed. She is holding a large birch bark container, probably from Alaska.
