Amy's Mothers Baskets

[Cardiffgal]

I received my auction basket from Amy today. This is the 2nd year I have been fortunate enough to get one. I would have bid on more of them but I did not to deny others the pleasure of these amazing baskets.

Amy, I cried when I opened my package, the basket is so, so lovely.

Thank you, in the midst of dealing with all you have on your plate, for sending and sharing it with me.

I will treasure it always.

I received my basket today and it's both beautiful and precious. I also received one last year from the first Rudie auction. The fact that I wanted another one is testament to the great talents of Helen Sacks Hoffman, may she rest in peace. Thank you, Amy, for sharing your mother's legacy.

They certainly are finely crafted baskets. I knew they would do well in last years auction and this years, they are works of art

Greener has one that she got from last years auction. I didn't know it was THE basket; I didn't even know she had one. But when I saw it on a table in the living room I had to stop and admire the darn thing. It's really very beautiful. Any left for next year?

Amy can answer this better than I, but I believe she said there are more of these unique baskets for future auctions.

Amy?

There are indeed enough for next year, and the year after. I might also put up a quilt or two and some silk screen prints of hers at some point as well.
