Pottery Club Wins Again at State Fair
By Kai Rambow
“I saw a program on PBS about ugly face jugs and I became inspired,” reflected Terrie McNamara. “I had also just broken a pot on the kiln and said ‘Oh, my gosh, perfect teeth.’ I wanted to do this as a challenge.” That personal challenge resulted in a first place ribbon at the state fair.
With something different, a huge jug, Sue Bederka and Jack Libby won a second place ribbon. It took longer to get the detailing done, than it did to create the big jug.
Impressively detailed work by Michele Miller won her a first and second place ribbon. “Whimsical is what I love doing. The fairy house one can put a candle in there,” enthused Miller.
The pottery club has once again competed well. Congratulations to all the winners.
