Not ceramics 😆 but felting pieces made over the last few years. The 1st one was done at @corkcraftmonth this year, the other 2 done at workshops by @woolly_crafts. The last photo was the 1st piece I made so not as polished as the other two. Still love it though.
Now which one to frame? Let me know what you think!

Firstly @corkcraftanddesign without which it wouldn’t happen!

It was busy but fantastic!!
