Spring has been very busy at The Basket Sampler.  We had a lot of classes in April and tried to get some baskets woven for the showroom.    Here is a little bit of what we will be doing in May:

Start off the first weekend with the 8th annual Black Sheep Weavers Spring Fling. This is just in time for Mother's Day.  There will be lots of great thing available including yarns, felted items, purses, quilts and of course baskets!  It will be held on Friday May 4 from 4pm-8pm and Saturday from 9am-4pm.  The sale will be located at the Hartland Education Support Service Center (old Hartland High School) at 9525 E Highland Road (M-59), Howell, MI.  It is just west of the intersection of M-59 and US 23.  More information can be found at http://www.blacksheepweavers.com/Sales.htm

We will be participating in Founders Day In Wixom on Sunday, May 20 from 1-4pm.  We will have pencil baskets for the kids to do for $4 each.  This is a great place to make them....maybe for end of school year teacher gifts.

The Association of Michigan Basketmakers convention booklet has arrived!!  It is kind of like getting Christmas in an envelope with all the class choices.  If you didn't get your booklet, make sure you have paid your dues.  It is not too late to join the AMB and be able to take part in what should be a great convention.  More information can be found on the website http://www.michiganbasketmakers.com/events.htm

We have had many 4H kids come in to work on baskets and bobbin lace.  Please don't let it get too close to fair time to start your projects.  See the website at http://www.thebasketsampler.com/class-4h.html to see what your options are for this years projects.

Hope to see you soon.
