Welcome to Basket Collector ll Basket Collector II I am dedicating this brochure to Kathy Libby, she was my first basket weaving teacher, then I started working for her and we became friends. We had our ups and downs but we had a great time! I miss her! This is how I started my basket collecting. The baskets on cover are very special to me. The center one NCBA Convention 2014 is the first basket I ever made in January 1996 with Kathy Libby. The Small Burma Border Tote was given to me by Jim Rutherford during my first convention in 2004. The Egg Basket was made by Basket Collector II Denise Carlson I won it in a Raffle. The Santa Collector, the Watering Can and the Hanging Basket were designed and painted by my friend Kathy Libby. March 13-16, 2014 I have had a very hard year I was hoping it was gonna be just a whole lot of fun but NOT! We must go on and remember our friends that are no longer with us and weave lots of baskets in their Durham, North Carolina honor.
