Sierra Rock
This knotted piece by Nancy Briemle was inspired by the granite rocks in the Sierras and took 12 years to complete. Waxed linen and metallic threads are knotted over a carved Styrofoam base with lid.

Nancy and Sandy Make Us Laugh
Hi, BABM ladies. I thought I’d share this video I took of Nancy and Sandy last year at our basket-retreat at Heidelmann Lodge making Bee jokes while making baskets. Some of you may have seen it before, but they are soooo funny, I thought all of you might enjoy it again.
