This is the front stack of our most recent wood firing. It was so good to fire with Norah Ruth and Dick Lehman . A good portion of these pots will be at our stops on the Michiana Pottery Tour next weekend. All three of us are tour stop hosts!

This will be turned into glaze over the next 50 hrs.

I am trying out a new shape of mug for me. The “barrel” shape is sort of a standard amongst many potters. Each putting on their own flare to the form. I am liking what I am doing with the body of these mugs but am a little undecided on what handle goes best with the form. Do you have any opinions on which of these two handles works better?

Pot 9 of 60.

Pot 8 of 60.

A few small 4 ounce mugs for today. They are fun to make because I do not do mugs this small scale very often. At first I was trying to get them small enough for espresso drinkers but they were still too big. I didn’t know how to make a handle that looked right at that scale. They all looked way bulky or way fragile. Still working on it but at double espresso level I think my handles work. Even the one finger one that I rarely do.

This is pot 7 of my 60 pot series celebrating my 60 years on earth.
