Thank you to everyone who helped Sell Out Eric's Book!
Eric's book.
Basketry craftsman and artist Eric Jon Taylor shares his story from making his first basket as a teenager, a lengthy apprenticeship, and then out on his own, developing his Cottage Style baskets.
Not a 'how-to' book
No basket patterns or instructions on how to make a basket. This is autobiographical with tons of images and stories. Think High-End ART BOOK! However, he does show you all the work that goes into processing black ash on-site and in the workshop as well as an overview of each step in making the materials.

Our journey to creating books started 20 years ago when Lynne worked on this Anniversary Journal Hardcover book. And then she created a book about a client’s experience with having heart valve surgery. And after that, she was hooked on creating books. For many it’s tedious, but she loves it.
Not under the Luffa Press imprint, but these are the first books that Lynne created and discovered she loved doing book layouts.
