I just read this posted in my EMT thread.
Great, I spent the first day of the year creating this bird feeder, a birthday present for my Mom. I was so happy to get out in my studio and play in the clay.
After a week with my foot up healing from surgery, I had a ton of time to watch You Tube videos and catch up on other pottery links. I watched how to make a cylinder into a square. I have seen this technique before but never had tried it myself. Here the results of my first day of the year!

How did you spend the first day of the year?
