5.0 out of 5 stars Inspired Me!, May 24, 2000
By 
Pamela Zimmerman (Washington, North Carolina USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Fibre Basketry: Homegrown and Handmade (Hardcover)
This book really inspired me to look in my garden for new things to make baskets with. I was already using pine needles, but now have expanded. Last fall I gathered iris leaves, iris stems, cattails, rushes and honeysuckle. Made a few small baskets, and found it is fun (and cheaper) to gather and prepare your own materials. This year, I am adding dandelion stems, daisy and coreopsis stems, paperwhite and lily leaves, yucca leaves (green and already dried), pine roots...what fun! Some of the plants described in this book are not available in the US, but the myriad of beautiful baskets made from dried bulb leaves alone is enough start my head buzzing with new ideas. Love this book!

Fantastic resource for Australian basketweavers. Details plant collection, drying and using methods. All the basic coiled basket stitches are there as well as some basic weaving techniques. Great buy for the serious basketmaker.Fibre Basketry: Homegrown and Handmade
