I took individual pics too, but they didn't seem to turn out well. You actually can see there was some sunshine on pots. Ummmm sunshine, someday I will see more, I just know it.


Some green stuff, they were fairly popular this year. Past years not so much. I did change the glazes, and surface design, oh and the shape of the pots themselves this year. Maybe they aren't the same work at all?


My personal favorites are the purple series. Ummmm huckleberries. I am determined to go hunting for the real thing this summer.


zee Celtic & Norse Knotwork. I still like doing it.

And the best thing is now I can make more stuff to replace those that sold!

Thanks,

I am concerned about accidental breakage. At one time I sewed a bunch of pouches that were slightly padded for packing pots in feast gear boxes. It was a heck of a lot of sewing to do and I let it slide. Your post makes me think that possibly I should begin packing pouches again.

People often kid us potters that breakage is good for us because we sell more that way. But I usually feel as unhappy about pot breakage as does the owner.

Well I don't know about most folks but I have a terrible track record with pottery but not in the traveling but in the use - I pack very careful and things get wrapped in cloths but I wave my arms around a lot when I talk. Surving a feast is the trick ; )

I've seen your face when someone tells you they've broken one of your peices - there is nothing but sad there.

Breaking pottery is a period practice after all ;-)

I sewed up a bunch of pouches from scrap material - nothing fancy AT ALL - to avoid chipping edges. Doesn't help full on breakage, but helps with the packing.

Yeah, that's what I use too. A great way to get rid of scraps too.
I was inspired with the pouches when I saw our beloved friend trying to wedge a beaker in a box. She's managed to keep that beaker for over 20 years though, so she must be doing something right. ;-)

You inspire us all in so many ways.
Inspiring me that fabric pouches for pottery might be a darn good idea is just one ;-)

oou! You just reminded me of a wrap design that I watched the candle Lady use at AnTir's Kingdom Arts & Sciences. I asked her if I could use her idea and she generously agreed. It was just a neatly kept pile of fabric that she pulled up one at a time around her ware and tied off with a ribbon.
I was going to work on a variation of this and forgot about it until now.
