jugs

Some half pint jugs from 500g of clay
and pint jugs from 2 pounds! I mix and match Imperial and Metric, whichever ends up a nice round number for each shape!
A new jug shape, again 2 pounds. I'm not sure where this came from but I like it!
If it works well enough at medium and small size too, I think I'll keep making it.
One is always expected to design things on paper first but I find that doesn't really work for myself (and many others too no doubt!)
I have a shape here that my hands like to make and pleases my eye and most importantly looks as if it will work well as a jug. Now is the time to do the paper design work!!

These are a lovely shape...I especially like the large one. I have tried to throw pots and admire your talent. Mine always crumpled into a big mess.
