[Nfb-krafters-korner] speakers and creative ideas

[Ramona Walhof]

Linda, I would love to learn more about pottery making.  I took one course, 
and it was such a big mess I have hesitated to bring clay into my house. 
Somebody on this list talked about a kind of clay that didn't sound as 
though it required so much mess.  And if there is a way to finish it without 
taking it to a kiln, I would love to know about that, too.
