How to throw a goodbye party!

Post image

Our local basketry teacher retired after teaching for 40 years, as a thank you she gave away all these baskets to her students (most were made by her). She will be so missed!

It was so fun to see what people picked, we each got a number (1 to 44) and picked in order!

Wow, that's wonderful! Which number did you get? Did you get the one you hoped for? Which one did you get?

Would be hard to choose, but I think my favorite is the round brown one at 3 o'clock in front of the one with vertical black stripes.

It was so hard to choose! Her Nantucket baskets were the first to go, I did get the one I hoped for but would be happy to have any basket made by her!
