Vancouver clay guild meeting

I joined the Vancouver clay guild last year.  I figure if I can drive an hour south to go to the Northwest Polymer Clay Guild meeting, I can drive an hour and a half north to the Vancouver clay guild meeting.  They graciously let me join and they are such a nice group of people.  They usually meet for several hours on a Saturday and have a mini-clay day as well as a short business meeting.

The meeting was today, and as usual, I forgot to take pictures for most of the day.  I did get a couple though.  Here's a pic of something Nancy made at one of the Clay Carnivals (2008 I think she said?)--it's so cute!


And here's one of a basket I just love!  I'm embarrassed to say I don't remember the lady's name (I'm SO terrible with names).


I managed to get a few things accomplished.  Nancy showed us how to do a snowflake cane.  Here's my effort:


Here's an angel ornament (front and back):


And a slightly larger ornament:

I had a great time, and I'd like to give a heartfelt "Thank-you!" to Shannon for driving.  She has a comfy, roomy truck and it was nice to have company on the way.
