Create a Woven Flower Sleeve in this half-day morning workshop at Shaker Village with Peggy Pollard of Underwater Weaving Studio. A decorative basket, folded to hold foraged or dried flowers to display on a table or wall.

Finished basket measures approximately 12″ L x 12″ H. You will take your finished basket sleeves up to the Shaker Herb Garden and harvest some herbs & flowers to take home!

All materials will be provided. All levels welcome. All ages welcome. You are encouraged to work at your own pace and can complete the basket during the workshop or take it slower and bring home with full instructions for finishing.

Max class size: 10

Your instructor is Peggy Pollard of Gray, Maine. Peggy began weaving baskets in the late 80’s and 90’s teaching workshops in her home, and producing the “New England Woven Tote” for LL Bean before retiring. After three, her daughter Erin began weaving her own path, and it wasn’t long before the mother and daughter became a team, designing and creating together. Underwater Weaving Studio was born.

This workshop is a fundraiser for the Shaker Herb House. Half of your ticket price will go towards the capital campaign to bring this communal workshop space to life! Thank you to Erin and to workshop participants!
