[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Reviewing how to coil a basket

Sun Jul 4 18:46:42 UTC 2021

Hello all,

Joyce taught a couple of basket making classes a few years ago. She had us purchase kits from a particular vendor and we then worked the kits together. I did not actually take the class, but can look back and try to find the vendor if anyone is interested. Or of course contact Joyce at blindhands at aol.com

May God bless you.
