We decided to give the level 1.5 class a try and I am liking it so far!

We have a guided project, or people just work on whatever they want. I decided to try the guided project which is something I would have never made otherwise: a three segment dip or sauce container. While I technically have a kitchen table we never use it, but it could be cute for a variety of dips during a movie night or something.

We threw the cylinders last week and trimmed and joined them this week. I still need to finish smoothing the handle and joints but I am very pleased with the shape.

A lot of the people in the class are looking to really dial in a technique and become super consistent, but for me pottery is something I don’t have to be precise about and enjoy seeing where the clay takes me.
