This field basket, modeled after one by Vonnie Miller, was quickly made at an annual gathering of white oak basket makers at Mary Ann and Bill Smith’s home in McCalla, AL. About 10 enthusiasts came together to sit under the shade trees of the Smith’s for two days in April a few years ago. We made baskets, shared stories, techniques, tools and tips.
Very nice. I was looking at photos from the gathering the other day on Mary Ann’s facebook page.
