Information
This basket was woven on Minjerribah (Stradbroke Island) using Picabeen Palm inflorescence and New Zealand Flax. I wove it when I was pregnant with my son whom has both Aboriginal and Māori heritage. This basket contains all the hopes, dreams and fears a mother carries when expecting her first child.
