Melanie and I had the best time finishing our baskets together on Saturday.Emmitt was very helpful too. You can see a glimpse of his tail in the mirror in the picture above. He was patrolling all afternoon incase they suddenly became food or gift baskets with his name on them :)

Here is Melanie working on her basket.

I just love the texture and richness of the basket weaving!
It was very fun and relaxing to do. I am sure we will make more!
You can never have too much art, yarn or containers!

Here is my completed basket filled with yarn for the Mother Bear Project bears I am working on.
I love making new containers. My new basket will be perfect to take on the Craft Weekend Retreat Melanie and I are going on again this Friday!

I know I will be working on the bears and a new sweater!
The other projects we have lined up are to finish Melanie's afghan, make mittens on our looms, and start a punch needle project.
We are going to be very busy having fun! I will take lots of pictures to show you!

Wow, the baskets look great! And very professinal, too!
Hi Melissa! Those baskets are wonderful. If I were there I would have been patrolling with Emmitt too. You just never know when food is going to magically appear.
I can't believe you and Melanie are going to another craft weekend retreat. That sounds like so much fun, but poor Emmitt will miss you.

Hi Melissa
A very nice creation!
No matter what you do- you always have fun and make things so beautiful.
I remember a few years ago making baskets(which now I cannot believe I did_) it was fun.

Great baskets! Penny thinks it
would be magical if there
were a basket durable
enough for a 30 pound
pug to be carried
around in.
Have a great time on
the craft retreat!
Dana & Penny
