Thanks, so far it is going well. The hardest thing for the students is
getting the center started. Of course the janitor is screaming about the
mess, but that's art. It is a good beginning of school project as we are
getting new students regularly and they can catch up quickly.

Subject: pine needle basket info from google search

hi,
 I too am interested in trying this some day (wish list) , but here's
what
popped up from a google search. First site has tons of links and
examples.
 <A HREF="http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Trail/9114/links.html">The
Pine
Needle Group, Pine Needle Basket Links</A>

http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Trail/9114/links.html

this site has a clear diagram of how to start to coil a pine needle
basket.

Instructions for Coiled Pine Needle Baskets</A>

a site where the weaver describes herself as a pine needle junkie ( too
funny)
 <A HREF="http://www.pineneedleart.com/">Joyce's Pine Needle Art: "I'm a
Pine
Needle Junkie!"</A>

and there are many many mor e, but this should help you get started,
last year there was a threaad about this subject on artsednet, but I
couldn't
pull it up from the archives. There is a list member who does this, and
at
one time was bombarded with requests for needles.

Hope this helps,
Christine Besack :)
