Mary Catello’s baskets are true artistic creations.  Beside showing and selling her own designs, Mary is a wonderful teacher. (Trust us – we know).  The Rickie Report is pleased to announce Mary’s line-up of classes. If you are a beginner or intermediate weaver, these are perfect for you!  Mary also presides over the newly- formed South Florida Basket and Fiber Guild which meets monthly.  It is a great opportunity to network with other people interested in fiber arts and basketry.  Details about classes and how to reach Mary are in this article.
