| My first experience with weaving baskets was in the mid-1980s when I bought a kit to make an egg basket. That project went better than it would have had I known that this is a rather difficult basket for a beginner. Several years later, I took a class at a local museum, and that was when I discovered color in basketry. I have synesthesia -- I "feel" colors -- so the ability to dye reed and create baskets with color opened a new world to me. From that point, I was self-taught. I bought many books and, of course, used my public library. Marjorie
