Berry Picking Basket in steamed and natural white willow.
This sweet basket, (8" high excluding handle), is a copy of a traditional berry basket made by renowned teacher Eddie Glew. Having seen the original whilst being taught by Eddie at the Basketmakers' Association Spring School in 2019, a year on in the stress at the start of Covid-19 lockdown my thoughts turned to this little basket. I made this for my youngest daughter, not only because I knew she'd love to gather fruit and flowers in it, but because weaving it gave me a thread to a better time.
