As members of Basketry SA we where given a wonderful opportunity to create these 3 pod chairs for a display in the Royal Adelaide Show. We set to work on them at the beginning of June and had them complete by the beginning of September just perfect for the show . It was a great experience and learning curve as well as fun.  You can read details here
