Object Narrative

For this project we were required to bring in objects that carry some kind of significance
your life.

I struggled in finding an object and brought in a necklace that I got over winter break.
But if I were to make this out of clay it would be very difficult to make the chain of the necklace; however, I could carve a clump of clay to look like a chain, but I decided to bring in or think of
another object.

I was brought back to my mind map that was still pinned on the wall.
I am referring to the thread spool.
I am currently in FS 102,20 "Quilting and Social Change" with Professor Ozorack
I am having fun sewing and quilting pieces of fabric together and the colors are fun to mix match and I thought the spool of thread would be interesting to make out of clay with other sewing tools

So I decided that I would make a big basket with a spool, fabric, ribbon, sewing needle, needle tomato cushion, and a lot of buttons.
