Welcome to Brenda Quashne, Basketweaver!

Brenda is a native North Carolinian. Born and raised in Asheville, she was always exposed to the crafts of the mountain people, especially basketweaving.


Once retired after 32 years of teaching, Brenda and her husband returned to North Carolina from Delaware. As they traveled around to many craft shows and galleries, her interest in baskets was renewed.   
Brenda explored various techniques in weaving with both wood and reed and with cane. Although she enjoys working both mediums, her favorite is the Nantucket Lightship Basket made with cane.

WE WELCOME BRENDA AND HER DISTINCT FORM OF BASKETRY TO OUR GALLERY.
