Hi Everyone, Thanks for your kind comments but I have a lot to learn as I am a beginner but I’m just loving it and especially the company!

The purple one is the same round shape as the pink one but the others are more of a basket shape!

I think they are lovely Annette and you are so talented picking this up so quickly.  You must be very patient.  Hope your grandchildren enjoy them filled with eggs.

Hi Lee2, In fact I think I am and always have been very patient and when I try something new, no matter what it is, I stick at it and won’t give up. Much like this cancer journey and when you are on it you need to be patient with all the waiting for scans then results etc. also if I can do it, anyone can!

Nearly finished the thing, Easter basket just needs filling and a handle..

That looks great Patrick

Hi Ian, was at my local beekeepers earlier, restocked a couple of jars. All sorts of things blossoming now, fingers crossed for a good season

That's amazing Patrick, you've got me interested in basket weaving, and will look for a course when I'm home from the Scilly's, Ian, I think the bee's must come here for their holidays lol, their everywhere. thankfully no Asian hornets, though someone said they get bee eaters sometimes, have you come across them yet?,

I bought loads of willow a couple of years but then lost interest unfortunately, bit more challenging but I would need a course. It was only illness that got be back on track 

Hi Patrick, despite neuropathy and arthritis, I'm still OK with my hands, and can get all the willow I need, and see myself as, being an ex carpenter, good with my hands. Would a weaving course be beneficial? or is it possible/sensible to teach yourself?.

Hi Patrick, These look amazing. I really like the bottom one. Once the handle is on, what will you fill it with?? Easter Eggs perhaps! Mmm

Hi Ian, Hope your bees find lots of flowers!
