Title: Coiled Author: Larner Characters: Pippin, Hobbits Rating: G Book/Source: LotR Disclaimer: Pippin and Hobbits are of Tolkien; his lopsided pot is his own, and the drabble mine, but nothing more.
When it was fired and he shyly offered it to her in thanks, she felt a tightly wound place in her heart relax.
That's lovely. She so wanted Pippin to succeed, but wouldn't patronise him by faking it - so real success must be a great relief for her.
My parents still have a number of wobbly coil pots on their shelves at home produced by their various offspring at primary school - much easier for little hands than trying to manage throwing on a wheel!

I'm just glad that Pippin would be able to know some success in his pottery.
