"pinch pot clay ideas" or "examples"
"coil clay ideas" or "examples"
"slab clay ideas" or "examples"
Your clay piece cannot exceed 7" in any dimension.
You will create 2 different plans for your clay project. Within the plans, label parts that will be pinch pot, coil, and/ or slab. In this way you are considering which techniques are needed for the creation of your idea.
