She now designs her own basket line, including a basket designed for each month of the year, and dyes her own reeds. She has taught basket weaving to both children and adults in locations such as Chicago, Texas, North Carolina and Florida. She is currently teaching at the Center for Lifelong Learning at Rollins College along with teaching private weaving lessons and holding basket making parties. _Continuing Education Units (CEUs) are available to FNGLA Certified Professionals upon request. _ _ Participants must withdraw from classes at least five days prior to the start of class in order to receive a full refund or credit.
