About the Instructor
Grace Holdaway
Grace is a basket weaver, willow grower, and traditional craftswoman based in Eugene, Oregon. With a deep reverence for ancestral skills and natural materials, she weaves baskets that are both functional and artistic, blending time-honored techniques with her own creative touch.
Her work is rooted in the rhythms of the land—she tends to her own willow groves, carefully harvesting and preparing materials for her craft. She finds joy in sharing her knowledge, teaching others the meditative and rewarding process of basket weaving.
When she’s not weaving, Grace spends her days caring for her willows, tending bees, and raising her young son, all while cultivating a life deeply connected to nature. Through her workshops, she hopes to inspire others to slow down, work with their hands, and reconnect with traditional skills.
