Bells, bells and more bells! That's right, it is time to gear up for the Spring Gathering basket weaving convention in West Springfield, Mass. This weaving weekend is sponsored by the Northeast Basketweaving Guild and is just a delight to be there, both as a teacher and a student.
Two classes I am honored to teach are the small and large Nantucket Bells. I'm preparing to put a nice gloss finish on the bell tops and rims... the easy part... THEN the fun begins when it is time to cut all the staves, bevel and taper them. OH yes and write the pattern too. The gathering is in April so I best get started now... want to see what they will look like when completed... here they are, hope you like them!
