hard to do much in 3 hrs

the evening hours during the week make it difficult to do anything much. i'm gonna miss my longer days at the studio when i start working again.

so, last night i got the mold done that i've been needing to do for baking dishes. i hated having to toss the last attempt. so i am making molds from my current baking dishes in the kitchen. the clay is drying then will be bisque fired 2X to make it strong enough for regular use. i'm optimistic. if it comes out okay i'll be able to make the larger and smaller ones also then get the baking dishes back home into my cupboards where they belong. the good thing is i am able to get another item off of my list of stuffs to do. i do want to get my chess pieces started.

the kiln was fired up yesterday w/the glazed pieces. i'm a little anticipatory of my things. pics if it works out.

i was triming a pot last night and trimmed too much off the bottom, so i'm gonna try to throw another piece today which will then be conxd to the other part. i hope then to decorate it w/leaves and such. hope it happens. :D

not much else.

regards
