This Hive was my first attempt at the coil method for me. I even tried cloth for the added texture on the folds on the surface. I didn't come on this project thinking of a hive though, i got my insertion from the shape of the object i was making. It looked a lot like a hornet nest you would see in videos about guys trying to nock down them like idiots. I also incorporated a rose into it by having the folds fold out in certain places. I personally loved this project.
