Now the fun begins. I love it when you all post photos of the projects in their new homes.

dartharnie the pictures of your girls tells me you are a wonderful dad. Did they like what I put on the bottoms? In a few years they won't remember me but they'll always remember the dad who wanted them to have these bowls. Love Dad. It was a joy to make them for you and for grand-dad too.

Clarita you are so kind. I just grin when I read all these nice posts. No reason I look forward to TC each day. Thank you.

Progress Report for on-going projects.

Tiki Atari's kickstarter project is a super hard one for me. Coming out of the mold every part needs work. It's all tiny detail. It takes me one day to do one mug.

I have just finished the first series a run of 12 and put them in a line to fine tune each one. By comparison I can see if I forgot anything.

Front of the mug.

One side of the mug with the girl having dived into the water.

After a day of fine tuning I turned them upside down so that the bottom can dry easier. Today I reverse this.

Next I start on a short run of a topless version. All total I'm working on 23 mugs with these 12 finished with the sculpting.

===================================================================
I decided to uncover the tables to see what projects I have left to glaze when kickstarter finishes.

I guess there will be lots of things to finish this summer. Several are Dan's wishes that I put aside so I could finish faster.

At least I am months ahead on the Sacramento Crawl mugs. Cool.

Thanks for the visit, Wendy

PS we are keeping sheets etc. on our furniture because our cat has gone crazy. We remove them for company.
