Israeli Polymer clay guild annual meeting

., originally uploaded by yehudity.

 Last Monday was the annual meeting for our polymer clay guild. this is a guild I established 4 years ago along with my friend Sharon Amir. I left the managing position app. 6 months ago and this gathering was the first one for me as a "regular member". I am so happy to see how the guild evoloved and how Pinki runs it now- this woman has the energy of 10 people and she is doing a wonderful job.

it was fun seeing all my PC freinds,talk about clay all day and look at the goodies that people made for a SWAP organized as part of this meeting.

During the meeting we had a competition with the theme"vintage" and the pictures you see above is the first prize winner. this is a life like size shoe made by Yehudity. she made 2 shoes, both very well made.

I submitted my new line of shoes as an entry- it was funny how small they looked near Yehudith's shoes :-)

you can see al the entries in the following link http://picasaweb.google.com/ronenagiv/oNTwQK?authkey=Gv1sRgCK-V3LX95rGOMQ&feat=directlink#

"Walking" all the way

Ok, I think I can definately say I am addicted... this is a sample of the shoes I made in the last few weeks. there are more if you like to see in my "shoe" gallery.

Now, what will I do with all these? mmm... have'nt thought about that yet...
