This is a changing mat I made for Baby Black Wolf. It has a nylon-y back (wipe-clean!), a polar fleece middle and a t shirt cotton top. The colours in the pic aren't really true - the back is BRIGHT yellow (not day-glo though) and the front is a pale yellow. I made two but the first one looks a bit shite... Amazing that simply cutting and sewing two rectangles could take nearly 2 hours. I think I need an overlocker! I was reminiscing about craft days while I was making it :o)This morning I went to the pottery class to do some extra bits on the pot before it dries out and I think I made some friends! (No phone numbers yet though!) There were some friendly women there all chatting away and we got talking. One went to school with Richie's sister. This is blog related because I used some of the clay we dug up from our field to glaze/seal my first pot! Just like the Romans did, so I was told. I will take a picture when it is finished, as I feel too stink to take pictures of each stage of my lame pot in front of the cool people I want to be friends with!
Rose - my pottery teacher is called Richard Parker, and he has an exhibition starting soon at Pataka in Porirua if you happen to be out that way. Also, you probably already know about this but check it out http://www.handmade2011.co.nz/
Lots of love my lovely crafty ladies. Miss you!
