Next welcomes Deborah VanderLinde, PhD, aka “The Basketmak’r”. Deborah is a veteran basket weaver and instructor. She is the author of three “The Basketmak’r” pattern books and was the founding publisher of the nationally distributed quarterly, “Just Patterns: The Idea Magazine for Basketmakers.” Retired from a career as a music educator at Oakland University, Deborah enjoys introducing others to the creative process and craftsmanship in basketry by teaching classes throughout SE Michigan. Join Deb in her fun beginner’s class where you will be introduced to or review basic weaving techniques. In these classes you will construct a square market basket: this easy to weave basket features larger weavers and an oak D-handle. Cane lasher makes finishing the rim a breeze! Classic size perfect for holiday decorating or gift giving. Measures: 8” x 8” x 8”. All materials are included. These classes have a maximum of 6 participants for optimal instruction, and acknowledging that everyone moves at their own pace, we have allotted 4 hours for completion. FYI….take the opportunity to sign up for one (or both) of these beginner’s classes to learn the FUNdamentals. Look forward to Wine baskets in November, and Mini Market baskets in December!
