This new glaze is “Indigo Float” by Amaco Potter’s Choice. I bought it a year ago thinking I’d use it much sooner than this past weekend. Joe asked me if I would get back into pottery if the glaze came out well. Joe, I’ve thrown four new pots! See a couple more from this firing here.

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…

The last time I threw a pot, my belly was wider around than the wheel, and I could hardly bend over to reach it. I never got to complete my brother’s wedding gift until this weekend. I spent the morning waxing and glazing with a NEW glaze. Kiln opening is coming soon!
