Craft of Weaving: 2 Day Course - Hedgerow Harvest Basket

10am-4pm
£120 - includes materials. Lunch and refreshments provided

Hilary Burns makes both functional baskets and sculptural pieces and studies and uses traditional techniques in her basket-making. She finds these endlessly intriguing and an inspiration in her work. These courses are aimed to encourage, preserve and pass on the skills of the craft of basket-making.
Traditional crafts that were practiced in the South West countryside served the needs of agriculture, fishing and related industries and resulted in basketry skills, baskets and products unique to this part of the world

During this two day workshop you will make a beautiful basket suitable for harvesting fruit and vegetables using traditional techniques for round baskets.
Hilary is a member of the Devon Guild of Craftsmen and a Yeoman member of the Worshipful Company of Basket-makers.
