No fair would be complete without a showing of handcrafted items! If you quilt, let’s see your handiwork. Show off your knitting or leatherwork skills. Do you enjoy basket weaving or taxidermy? Maybe you have a knack for woodcarving or candle making? It’s time to share what you love to make!

The Handcrafts Contest is a judged photo contest.

Ok, so I made a mini clay sculpture, and I'm not sure if it's appropriate.
It's one of those sculptures of a female torso that is completely smoothed over and has no arms or legs. I think it's really cool, and I've tried painting it multiple times but I just couldn't do it right.

Is this allowed?
Sculpture would go in the art contest here:

As to the subject, can you start a private conversation with myself and @casportpony and send us a photo? We can help determine if it's appropriate.

Thanks!
 
This is Bella, the fiercest rainbow unicorn this side of the Mississippi. Be careful that she doesn't stomple all over you. 😄

She is made of mainly wool, and a tiny bit of cotton and acrylic yarn, with some embroidery floss. Stuffed with wool. Pattern is from the Ravelry website.
Super cool. Do you happen to have a larger image? This one's pretty small and it's hard to make out details.
