"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?
