President’s Welcome Greetings to you all,

Can you believe that it is time to plan for your attendance at our next TBWA conference in Dallas? I hope you are looking forward to it as much as I am! There are some new-to-us teachers and some past favorites. The selection of classes will be all new. I am especially pleased at the number of two-hour classes we are offering on Thursday and Friday evenings. They are a great way to learn one new technique or have a true sense of accomplishment in finishing one quick item.

We are also having “The Exhibition” this year where you can show off the basket you worked really hard on or that you wove at a faraway conference the rest of us did not get to attend. Bring your first basket, bring the one you struggled with the most, bring one made with unique materials, bring one you bought in a far-off land. Just think of the wondrous variety we can all experience if each one of us brings one or two treasures from home.

A challenge has been offered up for all members to take from Lynne Dees, Cricket Rose and Janet Newman. Repurpose, Recycle and Weave will highlight baskets made with plastics. It is your choice of what and how to weave with store bags, plastic bottles, plasti c caps, or milk jugs that you toss in the recycle bucket. Consider fishing those items out and looking at them with a different mindset. Help us to see the beauty within these objects and create a unique display.

Our vendors will have some terrific surprises and gadgets as well as the standard tools and supplies we depend on every day. It will be so nice to see and touch what you can buy instead of ordering through the mail or online. I would also like to draw your attention to the logo wear items. I think there are some practical apparel items this year that will enhance anyone’s wardrobe.

I especially look forward to the silent auction and the drawings every year. And the goodie bags…. Wow, it is always such fun to see what treasures and practical items are in our registration bags. Swag rules! It is my hope that your guild has been able to come up with something special this year to include in these fun events.

Most of all, I look forward to seeing each one of you. This is the only time I get to visit with some of you and I so look forward to catching up face to face. You all are what makes our organization successful. You all are what keeps basket weaving in Texas alive and well. I am so proud of hearing about the educational demonstrations you do throughout the year. I look forward to meeting new faces as well. People who give are what makes us strong.

It is my wish that you have a most enjoyable, memorable conference. See you at the annual meeting.

Wonderful weaving,

Juanita Stanley

WEAVING SKILL LEVELS

Please evaluate your skill level, not only for your total weaving experience, but also for your experience using the

techniques and materials offered in the classes you are considering. If you are trying a new technique it may be best to

look for materials that you have used in the past. The same can be said if you are trying new materials it may be best to

do so using techniques you have mastered.

BEGINNER (B)

Beginner students have little or no weaving experience having woven none or only a few baskets. These weavers are learning about

basic weaving techniques, such as over/under weaving, start/stop weaving, twining, and rim lashing. They are learning to control

shapes. Please give extra consideration when taking a class in a material or technique you have never used before.

BEGINNER/INTERMEDIATE (B/I)

Student has woven beginner baskets, considers themselves still a beginner but is ready for more challenges.

INTERMEDIATE (I)

Intermediate students are proficient in basic weaving techniques. They do not have difficulty setting up bases, twining, completing

over/under weaves and creating rims using the materials offered in a class. Students are ready for new weaving techniques.

ADVANCED (A)

Advanced students have beginning and intermediate weaving techniques. Weavers at this level are capable of designing a basket on

their own, but seek something more challenging. Students are comfortable with shaping and more challenging aspects of weaving

such as intricate patterns and multiple weaves.

ALL LEVELS (All)

These classes are offered to students of all skill levels from Beginner to Advanced.

2019 Teacher Biographies

Sandy Atkinson 109, 116, 205, 218, 313 Sandy Atkinson began weaving in 1983 when she was home with her four daughters. In 1985, she and her husband Steve opened Atkinson's Country House, where she could teach basket weaving and sell supplies. The success of the business grew into a nationwide mail order company. Sandy had a nationwide PBS-TV series in the late 1980’s and 1990’s and has continued to teach around our great country in over 20 of our great states! She has written several hundred patterns, has been featured in magazines, and is a published author of her patterns and five books. Her goal now is to promote basketry, especially to the younger weavers, to assure that the art will continue into the future. Sandy and Steve love to travel around the USA teaching this wonderful art.

Steve Atkinson 201, 202, 302, 304, 408 Steve Atkinson worked for GM for 34 years. He retired in 2000 and joined his wife Sandy at Atkinson's Country House full time. He is in charge of packing and shipping, plus anything else that needs doing. Steve took up woodcutting and now cuts all of the wood work for the shop including his own stools, rockers and chairs. He also enjoys teaching the seat weaving classes. Steve and Sandy continue to work in the basket studio in Lennon, Michigan. They live on a small farm, have eight grandchildren and love to travel around the USA to teach.

Vickie Gildon 111, 212, 219, 314

Vickie began weaving in 2001 and taught her first class in 2005 at her church. She has continued teaching locally for the Duncan Arts Council and Stephens County Home Extension Group. She would like to thank everyone for their encouragement to submit to TBWA.

Karen Hobbs 106, 311 Karen has been weaving since the late 1980s when an aunt taught her to weave pine needle coil baskets. She has been a multimedia artist ever since through knitting, book making and quilting to name a few. Her love is baskets and brooms and sharing the knowledge gained through years of teaching. Karen has just released her first book. “Swept Away, the Vanishing Art of Broom Making”. She has served as President of the Central Texas Basket Guild and Member at Large for Texas Basket Weavers Association. She was awarded the First Recipient of the Texas Basket Weavers Educational Grant 2017, with which she learned more in-depth about Willow weaving, harvesting and growing. She is a member of the teachers at Oklahoma, Stateline, Texas and Texas Gourd Society.

Emma Hughes 215, 310, 404 Emma is enjoying her 31st year as a basket weaver and instructor. She has taught throughout the Southwestern United States and the TBWA Conference as well as Missouri and North Carolina Conventions. Basket weaving is her passion and her therapy. Sharing her talent with people is like putting a rim on a basket -- the best part.

Debbie Hurd 101, 203, 306, 405 Debbie began weaving about 30 years ago at a community education program in Arkansas. She retired from teaching first grade Reading and is now active designing new baskets, traveling, and just having fun weaving!

Gina Kieft 104, 113, 208, 315 A & B Gina began weaving baskets through her local Community Education program. She loved it from the start and has been teaching basket weaving for 20 years. With over 100 patterns written, works published in two basket magazines and several awards won at the AMB and the NCBA Conventions exhibit rooms, she is thrilled for the opportunity to teach her love of basket making. She enjoys teaching at the local Arts Council and Council on Aging, Scout troops, as well as private groups and individuals. More information can be found on her website: www.ginasbaskets.com.

Karen Kotecki 107, 115, 209, 217, 312, 407 Karen’s license plate holder says it all: “I’d Rather Be Basket Weaving.” A close second is teaching, a passion that inspires her to create new designs with both traditional and non-traditional materials. The opportunity to share her knowledge and techniques to help others on their basket weaving journey keeps Karen motivated. Even after many years of weaving, Karen remains a student of basketry; reading, traveling to museums, and taking classes. Attending conventions is always a learning experience as she is informed and inspired by the work of others.

Annetta Kraayeveld 102, 206, 308, 401 Annetta began the weaving in 1994 when she found a book and begged a lesson. She is still obsessed with baskets and finds great satisfaction working with her hands, merging an age old art form with the contemporary world. Creating functional art pieces is her passion. When not weaving, Annetta is teaching, which she enjoys as much as weaving. She has been teaching at basket events and guilds across North America since 2000. In 2015, Annetta started a blog called the Basket Teacher, you can read it at www.prairiewoodbasketry.com. Besides weaving, teaching and writing about baskets, she loves the people she has met and the places she has visited through basketry.

Martha May 213 A & B, 303 Martha May has been making baskets for 17 years. She enjoys making a wide variety of baskets including pine needle baskets, intricate twills, wicker baskets, traditional designs and more.

Brenda McKinnon 112, 214, 301 Brenda has been weaving 30 plus years. She stays busy teaching basket weaving at local guilds, clubs, schools as well as private lessons in her home in Bedford, Texas.

Her involvement in the D/FW Basket Guild began in 1987 as a charter member who was instrumental in starting the organization. She is a charter and founding member of TBWA. She has taught at GA, IN, NC, MO, OK, AR and TBWA conferences.

Cindy Pauchey 309, 403 Cindy is a retired art teacher with 28 years’ experience. Weaving entered her life 34 years ago when she owned a quilt shop in the small town of Walters, OK. She ordered a book on basket weaving and fell in love! Her first goal was to weave baskets. Afterwards she needed something more in personal growth in basketry and decided to grow gourds. In a great ‘ah, ha’ moment she began incorporating gourds into her basket weaving. It made perfect sense since it allows intertwining gourds and baskets to create a sculptural quality. Cindy has sold her gourds and baskets at many art shows.

Pat Vogler 108, 210 Pat's love for basket weaving began in 1999 when she was convinced to take a class at the local community college. In 2002 she opened her basket shop, Bittersweet Baskets. She and her husband John started making ash bases in 2007 and then in 2013 purchased a leather handle making company Homestead Heirlooms.
