pine needle basket
Scowler:
An exercise in patience and persistance. Job well done. :)
hedge:
WOW. That is gorgeous! Wish I had that talent. I have tried my hand at basket making. Simply ain't gonna happen :( I probably could if I had someone to coach me along. Anyway, make some more ot those. I bet they would sell. Or even use them for trading purposes.
koan:
Awesome!..... Build a long? :-)
vinemaplebows:
Thats cool I have always liked hand made baskets, and quivers of this type. :)

thanks guys. maybe when Spring comes and I can peel elm cambium easy, I will do an all abo build along of this style basket. This was my first attempt btw, it really isn't hard, just tedious.
made another quick one from split palmetto stems....which apparently isn't very good material choice. it made a basket, but not a pretty one. guess if you want a pretty one you gotta have rattan or willows. I need to find something else here local that will work nice. vines work, but I don't think they will look very good. these are all just pieces to my "abo living kit"
