While I was in Kansas....

I stayed at the home of a fellow basket collector and weaver. That would be my Mother and Daddy :-) I think I come by my collecting honestly don't you?
We gathered up and made a display of 40 of their baskets that they have collected or made themselves over the years. Later we found a few that weren't included.
Some of the baskets I remember being in our home as I grew up so it is a timeless collection. smile
Here is the weavers themselves. It looks like they may have been doing more motorcycle riding than weaving from their tan lines but winter will come again or a must have idea in order to make something organized.
I love baskets! And I love you Mother and Daddy!!!
