The National Basketry Organization. Their website is the place to go to keep up to date on the organizational steps they're taking. They have a link to join, too! Other basketmakers

The Virtual Basketmakers Guild (VBG) of which I was a founding member. Although the guild is defunct now, Carol keeps the pages online but doesn't update them any longer. Many of the basketmakers have moved on to other things.

Pine needle baskets by members of VBG: tray by Nora Voss (left) and pine needle ginger jar by Carol Antrim (right), showing their very different styles! Both were gifts from the artists to me.

Basketmakers.com Excellent source of information about all sorts of basketry related topics.

GH Productions Several years ago, I went to white oak basketmaking workshops taught by Scott and Beth in Rugby, TN. They have terrific white oak splints and handles.
