Nature Baskets & East Troy

Don't forget these last few weeks of summer to be on the lookout for dried weeds, sticks, shells (there are clam shells on Lake Winnebago) bark and "?" that could be used on the Nature Basket.

Also, since my Mom's stroke last November I am going to Southern Wisconsin 2-3 times per month and
I pass within a few blocks of East Troy Basketry every trip. So, I have been stopping about once a month. I have been stopping so much I finally accumulated enough points for a free apron!

If you don't need the items until guild meetings, I am willing to pick up a few things so you can avoid postage. Just email me and let me know what you want. Every time I go in Eileen has new baskets on display and big pots of newly dyed reed.
