Description

---

A wonderful opportunity to work with these internationally acclaimed basketmakers.

Both workshops are suitable for beginners and those with some experience.

Numbers are limited, and a few places are still available on both workshops, so please get in touch with Anna Corbett if you are interested.

Please note that the two workshops are running at the same time, so you can attend only one!

After his very successful visit last summer, Tim has agreed to return and this time he will
be accompanied by Monica Guilera, a very accomplished basket maker and teacher who
specialises in traditional Catalan techniques. Together, they run Weaving by the Sea in
Vilanova, near Barcelona, Spain. This visit will be a tremendous opportunity to take
advantage of their skills closer to home. For inspiration, have a look at
www.weavingbythesea.blogspot.com
Tim will be teaching braid and stitch technique, working with rush; Monica will teach
Nansa fish trap baskets, working with willow.
