What looks like a comfy mod sofa is actually Nancy Nearing’s version of a recliner for her iPad.

“I got tired of balancing it on a couple of drinking glasses and a book – it looked messy and was wobbly. I spend enough time on Zoom these days to need something better. I remembered seeing Leslie Blackford make a stand at Ohio’s Bash several years ago, and I had lots of scrap clay,” says Nancy.

She figured out the pattern using Maude McCarthy’s mosaic demo, and Deb Hart’s Easter egg instructions. She also remembered that Barbara McGuire had used sculptural wire mesh for support. The black line is a groove in the clay in which the IPad rests and stays securely in place.
