*THREE PLACES REMAINING*

With Hilary Burns – website

Make your own oblong harvesting basket in willow. Oblong baskets fall into the ‘squarework’ category. They are a step up from simple round baskets. Beginners are welcome, they will make a slightly smaller sized basket with a carrying handle and simple border. If you are an improver you could make a larger basket, or, if proficient, experiment with more complex weaves in the sides and French wrapped handles.

Hilary is an experienced tutor and is happy to discuss your requirements in advance so that she can bring suitable materials. We will use willow with a subtle variety of coloured bark from my collection of willow varieties.

£195 (plus materials approximately £30)

Courses run 10am – 4pm, we will be glad to welcome you for coffee from 9.45am.

A selection of teas, coffee and soft drinks are inclusive and served throughout the day.

Each course has a detailed requirements list so you know if there is anything in particular you will need to bring or wear. We try and keep this minimal and supply most of what you need, but we know that people also like to bring their own ‘kit’ if they have it. Please ensure you read your list carefully and do ask if there is anything that isn’t clear!

We also offer 4* B&B accommodation please enquire or see our course accommodation page full details – it is worth noting that during course times we only have attendees staying here so our accommodation is not available through the usual online system.
