    Review of "Clay for Your Soul" on Beacon Hill in Seattle, November 19, 2009

    I am just about to sign up for this pottery class for the 7th consecutive session. It continues to be a fantastic adventure! The combination of Molly’s experience, confidence, and relaxed manner creates an environment in which creativity can be fully explored. Whether you’ve been throwing for years or have never touched a wheel, Molly offers appropriate instruction, suggestion, and encouragement, always managing to hit the right note. She has a good sense of humor which comes through in her class. I look forward to each class, to each new chapter.
