Beginner Basketry: Blanket Stitch

In this class, participants will learn how to create a basket using cording, rope, and found materials that are all held together with the blanket stitch. We will go over materials, how to make cording, and variations on basket shapes. Then we will create our basket using a coiling technique and hand stitching. No experience is required. 

All materials are included, but students can bring any fabric, yarn or thread materials from home to include in their baskets for a personal touch.
