Hand Building Class
My first course in hand building is over now, although I’m still finishing up several pieces over at Pullen Arts Center. I’ve only ever used the wheel, tending to think hand building wouldn’t interest me, but I have to admit that I really enjoy it. Pressing texture into the clay is much easier with a rolling pin, which doesn’t work so well on a round pot. It also is easier on my shoulder, which has chronic pain and is agitated…

Introducing …
The ten of you who read Love Sown might have noticed that my posts have digressed from almost daily to quite irregular. This is for a good reason! I’ve been working at the wheel nearly daily and over the past few days have been developing an online store.
