Good Morning it seems like yesterday I said TGIF and here it is again.

dartharnie where are you?

littlegiles I get to open that kiln today. It's always scary enough and with severed heads in there, well I'm just saying...

GROG a while back I got permission from MP to make a Suffering Bob (not square) and he said it was OK, that's now in the hang10tiki collection. I wouldn't mind at all if you made some wood textured Bob's. We all copy vintage mugs and if you use this texture then I'll be flattered. Show it here when you do it.

You just need to make 1000 shots and S & P's. That will fill your kiln!

(GROG glad GROG make Dan laugh. You two have fun.) and me too. Thank you for a very fun month.

hang10tiki ( Lookin sweet ) are you talking about Dan? Thank you too for a very fun photo-shopped month.

tigertail777 I noticed that too and sent the page off to Roge. He could cause a thrill if he went into a restaurant with those posters.

Wow, thank you everyone for all the comments and questions. I enjoyed them all.

I set up the table for a visitor.

This is Norma, my best friend since 8th grade. We met because we were assigned seats on the school bus. She made mugs for her grandchildren. We had a 7 hour visit.

Progress Report:

The last of the heads have been glazed when I unload the kiln today these will go in along with the grand kid mugs.

Unless there are glaze skips I will be finished with the heads when these fire. Yippee. The I'll contact those of you on the list and get these shipped or boxed to take to events.

I cast a few necklaces. Here I've cut away all the excess clay around the creatures.

They have a lot of clay that needs to be removed.

I use a melon ball-er to scoop it out. Lots of kitchen tools are good to use.

I added holes for the chord

and then autographed them.

Then I carved detail that was lost during handling.

There so many projects that I can work on now that the heads are done my head is spinning. Hummm could I make a mug with a spinning head? Something to think about.

Thanks for being here, Wendy
