I saw a woman at the shopping center today with one of your baskets. I couldn't take my eyes off of it - it was so beautiful. She directed me to look up Baskets of Africa and I'm so thankful that you have such a beautiful site! They are so incredibly gorgeous. With the deepest of thanks to the Amazingly Talented and Beautiful hands that made my baskets!!!! Sherri
