Have been to more classes and made some more baskets. They are very attractive and are being put to good use holding fruit.
Some more weaving materials:
[ul]philodendron leaves
ginger
jacaranda leaf stalks
iris
cordyline (cabbage tree)
pine needles
red hot poker
bullrushes
passionfruit vine
melon
wireweed
kangaroo paw[/ul]
A recommended book is Fibre Basketry: Homegrown and Handmade by The Fibre Basket Weavers of South Australia and by Helen Richardson.
I have a note about Everton Park Library – possibly there are weaving activities happening from there.
