Grass Slipper by Donna Kallner

Dig into evolving  fiber traditions.

Kettle Moraine -- coiled Siberian iris leaves by Donna Kallner

Some of my favorite coiling books are out of print or hard to find. If your local bookstore or favorite basketry supply source can't get a title you want, try amazon.com for out-of-print titles. If you want to peruse before purchasing and your local library doesn't have the titles you want on their shelves, try ordering them through interlibrary loan. If you belong to the Textile Center in Minneapolis, they have an amazing lending library. And if you're at Sievers, be sure to break away from the studio and the consignment shop long enough to check out the library.
