Each April, Pam Feix, Debbie Cates and the Whitewater Basket Guild in Richmond, Indiana host a spectacular three day basket weaving event, Stateline Friends Weaving Retreat. Four hundred people (basket weavers, basket teachers and vendors) gather together to weave baskets, learn new weaving techniques, stock up on basket kits and supplies, enjoy each others company, catch up with old friends and make ones. 
That’s right, Eat, Sleep Weave about sums it up. 🙂 Read more
The Woven Together in Western Kentucky 2016 Basket Retreat was held last week. The three day event was held at Rough River Falls State Park and Resort, Kentucky, we wove in the lodge over looking the lake. Beautiful!
I brought my camera and took lots of pictures of my basket classes and the event, so today I’ll give you a pictorial tour of a great basket weaving retreat.
