A BIG thanks to everyone who made the trip out to the wilds of the greater Boiling Springs area to come look at pottery. It was great to see you all and I am truly touched that you bought my pieces to give as Christmas gifts. That might sound silly to you, but I am amazed and honored that people buy my pottery in the first place. Something I made you like enough to buy? And then you buy my pieces to give away to people you love. Just wow. That is a HUGE compliment.
So that was this weekend. LAST weekend I worked in the studio more than I had in a long time. (And my lower back let me know that it was not at all used to all that stooping over the wheel.) I had promised to do some things for Christmas presents and realized that it was December already and I'd better get started. I won't go into detail or show pictures until after the holidays, but I'm excited about some of the new things that I've tried. I am happy to say that everything that I promised to make is well under way and as long as there are no mishaps (exploding kiln or badly misbehaving glazes), I should be able to deliver on those promises. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed though just to be safe.
