Well, I did it! I made a mug for my favorite coffee shop. Oh, and I finished my socks.

Today is my mom's party. Above I'm with my sisters inside the house, and below we are with our mom outside.

 I made a dacquoise for dessert. It was good but not perfect. The ganache was only supposed to be on the top, so it was hard to cut - I put it in the layers.

Teensie was very interested in the candles and the flowers cut from Gwennie's yard.

Squirt wanted me to make these for him and his friend, so I did.

Below is one sock done.

Today is my mother's 85th birthday! My sisters are coming to town this weekend for her party. Above is a baby blanket I finished today. It's for a former student who is having a little girl. Below are some mugs-- a really awesome turquoise one and one I'm working on for an Arabic student, and a little vase I painted with my Amaco Brent watercolors. No speckles came through... maybe because I coated it in porcelain slip
???

I got the idea yesterday to do this. I made a reverse mold for a "sticker" for a mug. If all goes well, I'll be making mugs with this sticker to sell in my local favorite coffee shop.

I got some good things out today.

Porcelain vase above and mug below.

 Turquoise mug for CJ and a black one and some Alabama-themed ones. This made me happy and kept me going....

This mug came out of the kiln today and I was very disappointed with all the spots on it. Nobody could tell me where the spots came from or how to get rid of them. I was very frustrated.

I am very frustrated with the studio I use for making pottery. I made these four mugs and had to clean them today because there was soot all over them, they sat so long on the shelves. I'm thinking of switching studios but it's just so convenient to come here....
