Instagram post 2196020338193890225_3033887089 New potluck basket added to the barn collection. Another one where the willow rods have so much variation that it’s hard to define the color. Like I have said before people are welcome to drop in just for a look. . #willowbasket #katherinelewis #willowbasketmaker #dunbargardens #skagitvalley #farmtobasket #basketsmadetobeused #americancraft
Instagram post 2192366689005753332_3033887089 Katherine made these two bike baskets a couple years ago for two sisters that live down the road. I was reminded about this photo yesterday after seeing a photo of the one on the left being used by another basketmaker to advertise a workshop. Perhaps the image was found on Pinterest or just an internet search. After I commented it was quickly removed and apology sent and accepted. The ironic thing is that they had some fine looking baskets on their own website that they could have used. The positive is I came across this photo of the two beach cruisers with baskets in front of some freshly harvested willows. . #willowbaskets #bikebasket #katherinelewis #dunbargardens
Instagram post 2191700469575261712_3033887089 Two large willow baskets that Katherine recently made. Shipping the right one today. A business owner is buying a couple of baskets for employees and let them choose. The one on the left is available here on the farm. It’s a large one at 23” diameter and 20” height plus handles. It’s mostly ‘Harrison’s B’ willow that had a bit of extra steaming. . #willowbasket #katherinelewis #willowbasketmaker #farmtobasket #dunbargardens #skagitvalley #willowweaving #basketmaking #basketry #basketsmadetobeused
Instagram post 2189514551816655855_3033887089 Katherine’s willow baskets displayed in our barn. Most are made with willows grown here. Definitely no fancy shop, but people are welcome to stop by any day to have a look and feel. No pressure to buy. Baskets are listed on our website of course and you can email us with questions. Thanks as well to all who follow, like and comment here. . #willowbaskets #katherinelewis #willowbasketmaker #farmtobasket #dunbargardens #skagitvalley #skagitgrown #skagitmade #willow #willowweaving #basketmaking #basketry #baskets #americancraft #basketsmadetobeused

I love how large the flower buds are already. 2) Orange-crowned Warbler in some new willows. 3) Pacific Wren poking around the barn for insects. 4) Anna’s Hummingbird perched in a birch tree. 5) Barred Owl giving me a look. 6) Barred Owl closeup. . #birdsonthefarm #dunbargardens #skagitbirds
