Thank you everyone you I value each one of you so very much. Progress Report on the Wish List: Dan and I got up early and went for a 1 hour walk. Then the rest of the day I sat at the table in our nook with the TV playing while I glazed. I did take one break to check on the two Missionary's Downfall bowls that were drying and found that one had a crack. I dug it out from end to end. The I soaked it in water. Then I filled the hole with clay. I save all the plastic wrap that comes off each project as I finish it. I re-use it in lots of ways. Here I packed it around the alter to slow the drying process. I put a plastic bag over it. Now I'll wait to see if I cured the crack or made it worse. Now it was time to glaze, glaze and glaze. Every color has to go on three times. These dried over night and I'll glaze the faces with clear today and then go on to the next set. These are for Sandra Dee. This is for Deb, it still needs running red lava over the sides. Then two for mymotiki. A classic small Bob bowl. A super carved with fall colors. Dark brown on the outside and orange with speckles on the inside. In this last photo there is also a small bob super carved statue that I did because I had him left over. I used the Carribean turquoise blue glaze for the first time. I hope he's pretty in blue. Thanks for joining me on this adventure in glazing, Wendy

Progress Report on the Wish List:

Dan and I got up early and went for a 1 hour walk. Then the rest of the day I sat at the table in our nook with the TV playing while I glazed.

I did take one break to check on the two Missionary's Downfall bowls that were drying and found that one had a crack.

I dug it out from end to end.

The I soaked it in water.

Then I filled the hole with clay.

I save all the plastic wrap that comes off each project as I finish it. I re-use it in lots of ways. Here I packed it around the alter to slow the drying process. I put a plastic bag over it. Now I'll wait to see if I cured the crack or made it worse.

Now it was time to glaze, glaze and glaze. Every color has to go on three times. These dried over night and I'll glaze the faces with clear today and then go on to the next set.

These are for Sandra Dee.
