Basket case: One that is in a completely hopeless or useless condition.
Hmm. That would be me. It’s only a couple of weeks or so until the Twelve by Twelve group unveil their window-themed works. I have various pieces in progress using a range of techniques but nothing is working quite right. Indeed many are close to being consigned to that round receptacle in the corner.
I have nothing I can show you but check out these elegant Thai-inspired baskets made by my friend Horst Kiechle.
Also, I have posted a mini-tutorial on the blooming technique on the Twelve by Twelve blog.
