Make A Basket Out of Pine Needles
310 East Alvarado, Fallbrook, 92028
Age Limit: 18+
Cost: $110
Renowned basketweaver Nadine Spier will lead a workshop on how to coil a delicate basket around a polished stone. Pine needle harvesting technique as well as final shaping and tapering will be discussed. Pine needles and waxed linen thread are vprovided for this project. This coiling technique can later be used to weave many other common plants. Basketweaving is a wonderful way to recycle from the environment and it also channels stress! Nadine’s baskets have been featured on the Discovery Channel, featured in numerous publications including “500 Baskets”, and she has produced three videos on basketmaking. She teaches at art schools and weaving guilds around the U.S. and Canada.
