Making an Easter Basket
It appears I am not the only one who likes to make a go of weaving baskets. Charlotte started her very first basket this week. With nimble fingers she manipulated the under and overs of the wet strips which were dyed pink and purple. Colors that speak of five year old girls and Easter baskets.
Yes, she had help, but for her initial attempt at basket making I believe it will be a grand basket to be used for gathering eggs at the Easter Egg Hunt at the church on Saturday morning.

She made a beautiful basket. We used to make baskets out of colored construction paper cut into strips. Your blog brings back many happy childhood memories.
It's beautiful! She did a wonderful job!
What a great basket, perfect for Easter! I'm sure she will have great memories of making it.
