Splint Basket Weaving - Adirondack Berry Picker

$375.00

This basket is a variation on an Adirondack Pack Basket (sized 10”-12”) and finished with a cross-body strap. Students will learn a Shaker technique for continuous weaving to create a solid base, and then weave and shape the body of the basket. 

Bridle Leather will be used to create the crossbody strapping for this basket. Basic leather hole punching will be used/taught to create holes for stitching the strap and buckles together.

This is a challenging class with lots of shaping so weaving experience can be helpful but this 2-day class will give students of all ability levels time to enjoy a stress free experience.

  • Duration: 2 Days

  • Dates: July 12th - 13th 2025

  • Includes:

    • $ 75 in Materials

    • FREE Historic Accommodation

  • Limited to: 6 Students

  • More: Workshop Information

All workshops begin at 9:30am on the first day of the program.

All participants must be 18+ years old.

Instructors

Beverly Cornelius

Basket weaving has been my passion for more than 25 years. After following and teaching other weavers designs for many years, I have developed my own distinctive style that incorporates bridle leather and horse tack hardware, resulting in many of my own unique baskets and patterns.

Two of my Ash Baskets are part of the permanent collection of the Folklife Center at the Crandall Public Library in Glens Falls, NY. I was privileged to be a Beekman Artisan for many years during which I designed and wove the Beekman Pie Carrier and their Wine/Picnic Carrier.

I am proud to have been an instructor at the Adirondack Folk School in Lake Luzerne NY since its early days and I am a member of the Cooperstown Art Association and the Northeast Basket Weavers Guild

My baskets can be seen at the William Coffey Studio in Northville, NY and online at Facebook.com/beverlycorneliusbaskets and Instagram at beverlycornelius45.
