Experimenting
It rained a lot today. I made a list of mostly admin jobs that needed doing and achieved a lot of ticks before the rain eased late afternoon. Meg and I had an almost dry walk local to home just before darkness fell then I cooked bolognaise. Jamie and Tilda were here for tea and then I spent a couple of hours at pottery. There is a device that looks like the mangle that I remember wringing out washing through when I was growing up, it's used for rolling clay slab. Much quicker than a rolling pin! I brought the bases and sides for nine more small pots home with me. They'll be dry enough for assembling in the morning.
So, on a rainy day it's another pottery blip. Two dessert bowls, slab built. I was testing two different glaze combinations hoping for bright colours with lots of floating accents from the top glaze. I got the colour but not so much of the extra interest. I may reglaze with an extra layer and see what happens.
