the briar patch basket

feeling a bit like sleeping beauty- the briars and thorny brambles are taking over the meadow! i have not trimmed the acre and a half of wild berries in five years! luckily we have had a few warm days here in sunny southern vermont - i've been taking my pruning shears to the legendary sized thorn forest, and started clipping- just enough so i can wander and gather berries a bit more freely this summer...the double bonus is that i'm drying all the bramble i took down, and will weave them into a basket!

first i stripped each bramble of its thorns- no blood from me, but my gloves sure got a beating. thinking canvas material next go-round.

these should be dry enough in another day or so to weave with. can't wait, the colors are really bright and beautiful.
