BASKETS BY EMILY

ABOUT ME          MY WEBSITE

In centuries past baskets have been a necessity of life. Although the use of the basket in daily life has changed - the basic art of making them has stayed the same.

It is my pleasure to introduce you to my own handwoven collection.

 

 

     

About Me:

 Located in the beautiful Walla Walla valley in Washington, I am a stay-at-home mom, who loves the Lord , and also love to create things. With the encouragement of my husband , customers, and friends, I am excited to now offer you this website. I took my first basket-weaving class in March of 2000 near the foothills of the Smoky Mnt. Range in N.C. I immediately felt 'connected' to the art and started weaving more as soon as I could. Moving out to the Northwest, I continued weaving and began giving classes at local museums and schools, and doing various shows and markets. I find the more baskets I weave , the more I enjoy it! and in a way I feel like they are all 'my friends'. I praise God for leading me into basketry and for opening up doors to share them with you in this way! May HE bless you today with His joy and peace!
