Karen's shop "The Farmers' Wives" is a locally owned and operated shop in the very northeast corner of Indiana.  The shop specializes in designing their own baskets, teaching classes in the studio and traveling and teaching throughout the Midwest sharing our designs with fellow weavers.  So many baskets have come and gone since our inception in 1991.  You should really check out her web site.  There are so many beautiful baskets.
