Sue Middleton x
Sue Middleton (1934-2012) was the granddaughter of renowned flower lady and basket maker Maggie Mazyck. She grew up in the Mt. Pleasant sweetgrass basket community, and spent her lifetime creating unusual and elaborate “show” basket forms. She sold work at her basket stand along Highway 17, in the Charleston city market, and at the Atalaya Arts & Crafts Festival at Huntington State Beach Park. Middleton's baskets are in the collections of the National Museum of African American History and Culture.
