Sunday Clay Day!
Those of you who follow Love Sown for my gardening posts may not know that I have another hobby. I started ceramics while I was in graduate school, and have thrown off and on as time allowed. This last hiatus was longer than expected, but I suppose nothing goes as expected when you throw babies into the mix. I have a pottery studio in our home garage, and as the weather cools and the garden slows down, pottery season is once again beginning! What a blessed life I have to be able to do these hobbies!
Today, Scooby and I played with clay. He had his own work table that he got good an sloppy while I through bowls on the wheel.

I am calling this the “Floodlight” bowl because of its shape. |

Friends, be prepared for more posts like these in the coming weeks. I’m applying to a couple shows this winter and spring, and I am so excited to be back at the wheel. Family, I’m crossing my fingers that there will be Christmas gifts for you this year!

I like posts like this. I wish I had pottery skills.. for that matter I wish I had gardening skills.

I like the cobalt blue – I'm seeing that color all over the place these days.
Let me know when/where you find a class and I'd love to take it with you.
