day5 of #20quilts made this one a few years ago #quilt #quilting

day 12 pf #20pots it’s odd to take photos of objects I have used because in a photo I notice all the imperfections and places that are not symmetrical, or a bit wonky, whereas in real life I don’t notice those things. I like to use this saucer for toast or snacks #cone6 #oxidation #screenprintonclay

more and more glaze tests… learning about how they interact with each other, #potteryglaze #glazing #cone6 #oxidation

day 11 of #20daysofpots more mugs—- I love to make mugs! #potterymug #clay #20pots #cone6 #oxidation #pottery #ceramic #keramik

day 4 of #20quilts not often do I sew the same design twice, but this scrappy 9-patch “plus-sign” block was an exception. flannel on the back, of course! the finished size of each square is 1-1/2” #scrappyquilt #20day #quilting #quilts #Longarmquilting

day 10 of #20pots from about 5 yrs ago, a handbuilt mug with screenprinted underglaze, slip trailed dots and a foray into commercial decals, one of my favorite colour combos! #screeprintonclay #pottery #handbuiltmug #cone6 #oxidation

day 3 of #20quilts a throw quilt is nice, especially in winter. Scrappy again, and also another simple repeated block #quilts #quiltersofbluesky

day 9 of #20pots Over time, my favorite mug shape has been this short concave shape with a rounded lip at the bottom. It was the shape most often made by my pottery hero, Mel Bolen, who was so kind and extremely talented. i don’t think I will ever throw this shape without thanking him in my head

day 3 of #20quilts this quilt was still in process of being quilted with straigh lines, but it shows what a difference the quilting makes when the very flat quilt top is being quilted into a more 3-dimensional object #quilting #scrapquilt #quiltersofbluesky

day 7, I think, of #20 pots this is a little mug I took out of the kiln yesterday, I am getting close with the teal glaze, just need a bit more blue in it. I actually have 3 teal glazes like this, but all 3 react differently when layered with another glaze. #glazetesting #cone6 #pottersofbluesky
