[Nfb-krafters-korner] Basket Class who would be interested?

"The hard bottomed baskets are the simplest to learn.  The circular  
bottoms 
already have the holes drilled in them and then you just soke the  reeds, 
cut 
to a specific length, incert reeds into holes and take the  extended 
portion 
of the reeds and bending them sidewase, each reed end will  lock the next 
reed end flat under the next reed and so on.  These reeds  now become your 
uprights for the basket sides.  You continue soaking  your reeds and 
weaving 
them in and out of your upright reeds until you reach  the height you want. 
Then you have to soak the top of your basket so your  upright reeds become 
flexable again and then you can bend them over and  weave them into the top 
of your basket which wil give it the finished  top.

As Susan wrote above this is a simple basket to do.  Who would be  
interested in taking a class in this?  If we get enough people interested I  will 
get the supplies and we can all work on the same basket.  Susan would  you 
help co-teach this class with me?
