[Nfb-krafters-korner] Clay classes in January

[River Woman]

One winter day I was pressing a large slab of clay, well, actually several 
slabs of clay, outside - pushing them onto old railroad ties. After I pushe 
them well into all the grooves, I cover the slabs up and leave them there 
overnight.  My neighbor came out in the morning as I was uncovering my 
slabs.  He said, "Are you making bread?"  There is no telling what my 
neighbors think of me - an old lady laying slabs of thick clay on rocks, 
fallen tree trunks, and abandoned railroad ties. The fantastic thing about 
CLAY is that ANYTHING GOES.
