Pine Needle Baskets

Celtic Horses
This basket took about 2 months to complete. I could only work on it a few hours after work each night. This flat basket was done using a variety of stitches and different colored threads.
I drew the pattern of the Celtic horses onto the circular piece of pine and then wood burned it to make the pattern permanent. Followed by varnishing the wood to protect it from moisture and stains.
I added some beads around one coil.

Red Basket

Half the pine needles were dyed a light red and used with plain pine needles to create a variegated look. I also worked the coils to create some gaps on the top of the basket to create a unique/interesting pattern. I applied silver filigree beads in between those gaps.
