I became interested in basketry almost 50 years ago when I received the first Foxfire book.

I work primarily with white oak that I hand split. I also use other local natural materials. I have demonstrated white oak basketry at Historic Beverly, the Sites Homestead at Seneca Rocks, for the Weavers Guild during Forest Festival, Historic Crawfords Cabin in Connellsville, PA and won a blue ribbon at the Cumberland, MD Heritage Festival.

It has been a hobby that gives me great satisfaction.
