From pottery to thought-provoking prose
A ‘potty’ Meeting
Creative juices were flowing during Wilmslow Meeting’s recent trip to a potter’s barn.
Friends fondled clay into intriguing keepsakes, one of which Andrew Backhouse wanted to share with Eye readers. He writes: ‘Wilmslow [Meeting] felt we should do more fun things together, and so this was booked in for those who could make it.
‘The previous day, some of us had worked with Thomas Swain on seeing our gifts and been pleased with what we had heard or learnt. Then I heard the Friend who created this person in the bath with a dog looking over saying that she was not creative! Aren’t Friends amazing? (And very reticent).’
Eye is always on the lookout for photos and stories from Friends. If anyone else is inspired by something in their Meeting or has their funnybone tickled by a Friend, Eye would be pleased to hear from you!
