SUMMARY:Basket Weaving with Soft Materials - FULL
DESCRIPTION:Come spend an autumn day at the Gardens with Joan Carrigan\, learning how to weave baskets with soft materials such as rush\, sedge and flower leaves such as iris and daylily leaves. These materials are lovely to weave with and offer the opportunity to explore a variety of twining patterns. Participants  will focus on control of shaping this basket without the use of a mold. The ancient skill of making cordage will also be explored. Discussion will cover the identification of useful plants you might find in the garden\, sustainable harvest practices and preparation for weaving. \nThis course is being offered through the Horticultural Centre of the Pacific in Victoria.  \nFor More Information and to Register: call 250.479.6162 or Register Online at this Link is here for HCP Website \nCourse fee: HCP Members $130 / Non-Members $150

SUMMARY:Weaving with Barks and Local Natural Materials - 2 day workshop
DESCRIPTION:Throughout millennia\, the tradition of basket making has always been closely tied to the natural world around us. Nature offers an abundance of beautiful materials as well as inspiration for the basket maker. Tree Barks will be a focus for this basket\, however\, we will have a wide variety of materials to explore and discuss. \nOn Day One of this course\, we will begin hands-on with how to respectfully harvest and prepare a wide variety of plants including tree barks\, sedges and rushes\, vines\, and plant leaves. Participants will process and prepare western red cedar and willow bark for their own basket. We will also make cordage with a variety of material on hand. \nOn Day Two\, we will cover the principles of how to design a basket in terms of shape\, size\, and pattern possibilities. A variety of weaving patterns will be presented for students to incorporate in their basket including plaiting\, twill and twining variations. Sample baskets will be on hand for inspiration. \nTo Register: Fill out this form \nOpen to all levels of experience \nDate: Saturday October 26 & Sunday October 27\, 2024 \nTime: 9:30 am – 4:00 pm \nLocation: Salt Spring Lions Hall\, 103 Bonnet Ave. Ganges\, Salt Spring Is. \nFee: $280 + GST= $294     Payment details will be given when you register for the course with Joan. \n
