Wow!!! I normally avoid making coils but this is a fabulous source of inspiration! Anne, you knocked this video out of the park!!!❤

[helenangus]

Ann, you are brilliant. Thank you for sharing.

Another creative idea! You never disappoint. I’ve always steered away from coil pots but I think you’ve changed my mind! Happy New Year, Anne! Looking forward to more of your inspiring videos.

Three seconds in and I'm already awed. It's gonna be a good day...

[waynelittle]

Woo Hoo!
You do not cease to impress me. At my age impressing me is hard.

[tammyandkiki]

You are always sooo innovative! These are absolutely stunning!
I think students will not want to move straight on from coil to slab projects but use your techniques!
All surely will be credited to you!!!
Thank you for sharing ❤

I really like those! The wash works especially well. That last one looks like old coral to me. It might go well with an ocean themed piece? Fun and creative, as always. Happy New Year! I hope it’s spectacular for you, your husband and your family.❤️🤗🐝

Ann, you come up with some very creative ideas! for some reason, I was expecting a handle on the last one you made with the wire wheel. It just said "pitcher" to me! LOL. Thanks for posting this.

[pashaveres]

Geez, you do such nice work! And it's so approachable. Always send my students to watch your videos. Thanks! Aloha

I love working with coils and will use this technique to highlight the coils. Thanks for a great technique. ❤

Pots to me have always been pretty boring. And all the mugs. Augh! And the glazings with drips etc. look to me like a school kid messed up the instructions. I just don't appreciate art I guess. Your ingenuity and results are spectacular. Nothing boring here. Thank you again.

Hi Anna! Have you ever tried to make a coral?

[gidgetava]

Where did you find the rubber ribbed mat? I really like the texture.

[chowfun]

I absolutely love your channel! I made the exact same bowl you made with coiling pieces of clay that were textured with the strings. It came out perfectly round when bisque fired but warped after glaze firing. It’s all wonky after glazing. I didn’t add a flat circular coil at the top like you did. Do you think that’s why it warped?
