Vegetable Gathering Basket a.k.a Toy Basket. I love the way a beautiful basket (or indeed any old vessel) will just adapt to whatever the need is. This one modelled by 8 month old Ingrid. I’m still very much enjoying maternity leave but planning on getting back into the making and teaching this summer, especially for the Cranbrook Iron Makers Fair (hopefully sharing a table with the lovely and talented Dominic of @sussexwillow), and teaching at the exciting new venture of @philippajking @curioushousecourses #cimakers18 #cranbrookiron @cranbrook_iron #curioushousecourses #craft #making #makers #willow #basketry #sussex #fairs #events #workshops #handmade #summer #newmama #maternityleave #tryyourhand
