Norah Kennedy Willow worker

My name is Norah, I live in Stroud in Gloucestershire and have been making baskets for 30 years. My baskets are made from stripped and unstripped willow - mostly grown on the Somerset levels, but with some unusual colours from Herefordshire and Powys.

The appeal for me in working with willow lies in the combination of natural materials and traditional skills.
