Double Wine Basket with Irene Smith

Event Description

Pre-registration required!  Call 505-747-3577 or email: education@evfac.org. - $68/85; $20 materials fee.

In this unusual variation on the basic market basket, you’ll create a lovely, functional basket that carries two bottles of wine in style, and with the basket’s woven-in divider, safely. You’ll have the option of weaving in a decorative color border or leaving your basket “au naturel.” Pre-requisite: Must have made a Market Basket (See March 3).

Irene has been making baskets and fiber vessels for over 30 years, and has many years’ experience in restoring Native American baskets for galleries and private collectors.  Irene maintains Metier, her fiber studio and gallery in Dixon, NM.  Since 1989 she has participated in the Dixon Studio Tour, exhibiting baskets and weaving.
