About

Teresa Jenkins is the weaver behind Helena Handbasket. She started weaving in 2002, and while skeptical at first, (crazy people weave baskets) she was hooked immediately. Teresa weaves with a wonderful group of women who live around the Indianapolis, IN area. Helena Handbasket came about as an outlet for her love of weaving and a lack of space in her small house. She needed to find good homes for her baskets so that she could continue to weave even more!

Teresa is a wife, mother of 4 grown children, grandmother of Chloe and Dylan, and former Montessori teacher. She loves God deeply, enjoys music always, and generally doesn’t act her age. (51)
