Fabric-Wrapped Coil Baskets
Saturday, June 28, 2025, 1PM - 5PM
$100 + $20 Materials fee
We'll use gorgeous fabrics, yarns and strings to wrap around a cotton core and then coil it all into a beautiful basket.
Once the form is created, we'll add embellishments with beads, shells, tassels and other ornamentation to take it to the next level.
No basket-making or art experience is necessary to take this workshop, or to make fabulous pieces of art.
Perfect for beginning through advanced artists.
About the Instructor: Vicki is an experimental and innovative fiber artist and instructor, always finding new and unique ways to work with textiles and fibers. Through her creative process, she explores many ways to weave, layer, attach, coil, tie, knot, twist, build and develop her pieces so they are vibrant and engaging. She then shares all of her techniques with her students, supporting and inspiring them to fully engage in their own creative process of discovery and expression. Vicki teaches at art schools and retreats around the country, such as the Art & Soul Mixed Media Retreat, the Mendocino Art Center, North Country Studio Workshops and the San Jose Museum of Quilts & Textiles. Vicki completed a 4-month residency with the Santa Cruz Recycled Art Program. She has exhibited and sold her work at galleries, businesses, health centers, restaurants, community centers, museums, and open studio events.
