Participants will wrap 9 needles with waxed linen (their choice of color) for 2.5 inches.  Then the coiled needles will be bent to form a round or oblong circle to start coiling the rest of their creation.  If they would like to start the basket with a agate slice that is glued to a piece of vinyl I will furnish it.  Since the agate slices are different colors, I suggest they use black waxed linen.

 

About the instructor:
Gary Terlisner has been making baskets for about 24 years.  He started with reed as he thought that was the only way to make baskets.  Later, he was introduced to other types such as birch bark, painted paper, gourds and pine needle baskets.  Pine needle baskets have become his passion as it is free form and he can let his imagination go wild.
