This bowl has a beautiful sculptural quality that belies its base material of plain rope. You’ll start by creating a flat base and then add graceful contours that make the project feel more like ceramics than sewing. As Nicole shows, you decide what its shape and size will be. This is a simple yet tactile project inspired in part by the clean, minimal aesthetic of Doug Johnston’s beautiful work. *Projects made using this tutorial are intended for personal use only.

Teacher did a great job and her project was very organic looking.
Nice instructions given, as she demonstrated. She made it look easy. I can only hope it is. I'm a bit scared that the shape won't turn out right. But it seems like a great project for my earth friendly family. I'm wondering where the best place is to purchase the rope.
