This week was the time to make a serious attempt at stocking up for Fall shows. Today was mug day and I tried to make each one different. These were my favorite ones. I also went back to some old designs that are not great for packing in boxes but are fairly poplular. The apple and pear is a design I haven't made for about 6 months but decided to bring back. I would like to put them in the Mint Hill Arts "Food inspiration show" in October. The yarn bowl on the left is an experiment. I like the pedestals and almost stopped making them because they do not pack for shows easily.
Of course, I have made other items. Yesterday I made brie bakers and I have also made a number of the Holey bowls. I have tried a few times to make large platters and large handled bowls. They are not working, I think because my clay is pretty hard. I bought a large batch of clay a number of months ago and because sales were down from last year, I quit making anything for about a month.
I keep up with a number of pottery blogs and have noticed that I can not seem to post comments. Hopefully this will fix itself.
