Unfortunately, in this time of health crisis, we have had to cancel our April class in Reno and probably the May Woodsford class, also. This is being done so that we can keep safe.
We had planned to make an "Easter Basket" in April so I will be emailing members a willow gathering basket instructions so that you can make your basket in the safety of your home. You will need about 100 willows from 30-40 inches long and 3-5mm in diameter at the base. The instructions for the "Dibo" gathering basket will have the sizes in it. Since we have had the cold weather, willows still can be gathered. You will be weaving with whole rods and weavers. Soak your willows if they are dry. Have fun and stay safe.

Here are some pics from Bridgeport class. Great hospitality from the Bridgeport community and a good turn out. We made our berry baskets and everyone did well.

Pictures on the right are from the Wadsworth burden basket class. Thanks to Pyramid Lake Museum and Billie Jean for setting it up and providing refreshments. Since this was a bigger basket, we hope that everyone is working on getting them done.
