T. Vernette Morse Basket Making

Annotation

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. A demand for lessons in basket weaving by mail has led to the publishing of Basket Making, which is the first of the How To Do It series of handbooks that is about to be published by the printing department of the Art Craft Institute. These books will all be of uniform size and style, and will cover such subjects as Drawing, Designing, Phoenician Wood Carving and Pyrography, Metal work, Needle work and other arts that are taught in the Institute. Each edition will be fully illustrated, and as concise as consistent with the nature of the subject. It is expected that these books will, to a certain ex tent, take the place of the correspondence course, although work will still be received for criticism, as it is quite impossible to meet every requirement of the students in any one book, or in fact any num ber of books. The work is condensed to cover as large a field as possible, and the only excuse for its being, is, that it may assist those who are now struggling with the intricacies of basket making.
