CRAFT Work

Flower on a Blue Tile
I made all of this out of clay and then painted it. We then used PVA glue to make it look shiny!
I love the mix of bright blue and white and green colours.
I did it when I was 9.

Patchwork Cushion, August 2014
I did this one day in the school holidays and it took me about half a day. I'd never done anything like it before but I looked at some videos on the internet and got the idea and how to do it from there.
My mum was at work and my Grandma was looking after me - she didn't know how to use the sewing machine so I quickly learnt how to thread that and use the different stitches!
I used different square patches of material and each line had one of each pattern. I really enjoyed creating this and I now have it on my bed and I'm really proud of it.
This is the first piece of proper sewing that I did on the electric sewing machine.
I was 10 when I did it.

Green Man
This is called 'Green Man' after all the ones in my local cathedral. Green Men are gargoyles covered in growing leaves.
I did this in art club and made it out of clay. I then painted it different shades of green and then afterwards used pen to outline everything in different colours like brown and green etc. I then covered it in PVA glue to make it shiny and hard.
I think I probably could have done better but my friends said it was good so I'm pleased.

Celtic Round House
This is a Celtic round house that I made in Year 4 and it was a homework assignment. I made it out of straw, paper, grass and watercolour. I got a head teacher's award for it.

Egyptian Clay Pot
In Year 3 at school we studied Ancient Egypt. I made this out of clay, paint and black felt tip pen. I made it look like an Egyptian pot. It is about the size of an eggcup.

I did this with a small clay kit at home. It is about the same size as the Egyptian Clay Pot. I let it dry and then painted it with pink hearts and black background.

Milk Jug
I did this on my 9th birthday at Eastnor Pottery. I learnt how to coil the clay and add a twisted handle. I then painted just the letters, the handle and the lip.

Potter's Wheel Pot
I did this on my 9th birthday at Eastnor Pottery. It was the first time I've ever used a potter's wheel and it was a pretty good effort! It is just glazed. It is a perfect size for oil and balsamic vinegar for dipping bread in - which I love doing!
