Want to know more about Judy Labrie?

Judy Labrie is the owner and single employee of “Basket Case Judy”. She has been making baskets since 1990 and teaching classes for over 12 years. She has repaired baskets, caned chairs, and created new baskets for customers.

It all started when Judy went to a Longerberger basket party at a friend’s house. She looked at the basket and said, “ I can make one of these.”…So half the basement turned into Judy’s workshop and she started making baskets and going to craft fairs. Then life got in the way and she took a little hiatus, moved a few times, and then settled down in Canaan, NH with her husband. 

Judy is scheduled to attend several craft fairs and farmers markets this summer.
