Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this sewing & textile class:

In this class we consider the properties of natural materials and form vessels of our own design. We begin with baskets made from paper rush, planning and weaving a full basket from start to finish. Next we learn more about how to improvise and build a coiled basket from pine needles. We discuss the function of baskets as holders of objects as well as narrative structure. The methods we learn using pine needles and paper rush translate easily into a variety of other materials, which we also discuss.

Basket Weaving Add On Kits Include:

  • Fiber Rush
  • Long Pine Needles
  • Tapestry Needle
  • Thread
  • Gauge for Pine Needles


Students will provide:

  • Scissors
  • A small jar around 4" tall and 3" wide (I use old jam jars, any small jar will do)
  • A large bowl, pan or baking dish with warm water for soaking needles

Our classes are designed to focus on a learned skill rather than a final product. At TAC, our mission is to provide skills and knowledge for a lifetime!

    What a wonderful two weekends of basket weaving. The teacher was extremely good a teaching on zoom. I learned two different basket techniques - a woven basket and a coil basket - I am excited to keep working on my technique for those styles and modifications she discussed with us. So fun to meet people across the country interested in learning a craft - and the other students were very talented! The instructor helped us share just enough of our own lives to bring us together as a group. Makes such a fun environment in which to learn.
