This last kiln load was spectacular! I have been working on a poppy bowl for several months and finally got it right!

I also got 3 large lanterns from my firing that are some of the best pieces I've made in a decade. Watch for them soon. I need to photograph them carefully.

In this load were also ornaments and flower bowls. I have casseroles, nesting bowl sets, and more flower bowls in progress. Today was exceptionally warm here. We walked through the silent woods under a gray sky. I love the dried shapes of November flower heads which are now brittle brown seeds. They are like hopes and dreams looking for a moist place to hunker down for the winter. 

I hope your Thanksgiving weekend brings love and laughter. Lee
