pottery work beginning

Here you can see the first few mugs being painted for the upcoming "winter ceramic season".

Early days! But any day soon, I will have enough for a kiln load and viewers of this blog will be seeing the results, and lots of colour and pattern! I have some great ideas for the new models.

Fabric For Window Treatment

On the table here, two pieces of custom fabric for window treatments. They will be made into panels for two powder rooms that feature a lot of granite and stone.




These photos are taken before the fabric was heat set and washed, so you can still see some of the chalk used to delineate the pattern before painting. The chalk washes away so easily.
I hang my fabric out side to line dry, and it was just too hot out there in the middle of the day to do a photo shoot!

I will post photos of the fabric hanging in place when the panels are installed!
