Update!
The clay 'blanket' can be seen, until 19th June, at the Morley College in London. Woot!
Just what it says on the tin - craft and random 'stuff' from Gillian M Reid. I'm on Folksy and Ravelry as Astrojill. My other blog (it's around somewhere) is mainly reviews - of places, products, books and so on. My twitter posts are even more random, and Facebook? Well, you don't want to know.

My Blanket OF the Ground
A lot has been going on in my life this past year or so, and I won't bore you with the details, but as part of my journey I am now back at college, doin' a bit of the arty-farty.
A crochet blanket that had been stowed away for years finally got completed, and it will take pride of place in whichever house I land up in. I love it. |
We were fuffing about with clay and I got my hands on a hexagonal tile cutter. Ideas began to flow as I played about with texture.
|
A bit of string theory followed... |
I added oxides... |
Here they are after firing. Now they need a glaze. |
I can't wait to see the finished result - they'll be going up on the wall when I have my place.
