You could almost see the steam coming off the pot as I snapped the picture. Talk about being fresh from the kiln!

The yarn bowl came out just the way I had planned...AND I figured out how to develop more of the "lichen" patterns like on the this piece. That alone is exciting for me.

Usually when I do a number of pieces in the obvara technique, I wind up my day firing with feathers and horsehair. Today was no different.

All this is in preparation for shipping to #STITCHESMidest. Why do I always go to the wire on the deadlines? I know why. Someday I might write about it.
