Lori Hungerholt, Artist Bio

Lori’s passion for coiled rope basket making sparked 13 years ago when they moved to the stunning driftless area of Rushford, MN. Using fabrics inspired by the kaleidoscope of colors reflected in the water, woods, and fields that change with the seasons, she crafts each basket with love and attention to detail. Strips of fabric are wrapped around a poly cord, then, stitched by sewing machine into baskets. To add a touch of the unique, baskets feature a naturally holed stone from the Root River in southeast Minnesota. Over the years, basket shapes and styles have evolved. For those who love the sea, I have introduced a beach-themed collection featuring seashells found during our beach combing adventures.
