Jayne Clarke reviewed: Willow 2 day english round basket workshop with Sarah Le Breton

"Great course and opened my eyes to the amount of work involved in basket making. Sarah the tutor was very helpful and informative not only about the weaving itself but some of the history of willow weaving and the raw materials used. I am certainly looking at other courses in the future"
