Native American art "is considered the best basket-making culture in the world, & she was the best in it.” Arguably, Louisa Keyser’s baskets were made possible not only by her talent & efforts, but by the support of white patrons. nytimes.com/2023/09/05/arts/de

No-tools basketry progress. This base is pretty much done, next step is to put the sides on it. Eventually it'll be a cylindrical basket I can put my lunch in.

Progress on the I'm making on public transport. This is the base, and once I'm sure it's large enough to fit a sandwich, I'll start adding sides at right angles to it.

This piece is a little special because I'm doing it entirely without tools (except for the little bamboo fibre holder you can see). The ends of my dried yucca leaves are tough enough to act as their own needless.

Yucca wraps, with yucca and palm fill.

Here's my most time-consuming coil . Made from yucca fibre, with one continuous piece of two-ply twist string. It's extremely tough and hardy.

Added the handle later (yucca string and a small piece of bone), with some help from my assistant.
