Jana's Baskets

This basket is something I saw in a book and am trying to perfect right now. I actually made it as three individual pieces and then sewed the star to the smaller one. Am currently weaving a larger version of this and will post pictures when it's complete. (Judy, I still need your critique on this one when you get a chance.)
This is a silk coiled basket which I designed and made for this bead (which was made by a friend of mine-Chris Hornby). This is also a silk coiled basket.
This was the basket I made after coming home from seeing an exhibit of Dale Chihuly glass sculptures. Sort of a "my interpretation of his interpretation of a basket".

Guess you had to be there.

www.dalechihuly.com - check out his work if you get a chance - it is fabulous!

 

This is a basket named "Pinata" which was designed by Judy Wilson (also known as "The Queen of Linen, Silk . . ." I love all her kits and really enjoyed making this one as well. If you'd like to see the master's work - check out www.judykwilson.com!

(No critique necessary Judy, I know that is is a bit different than yours - but, as usual, I like it!)
