Beautiful!!! Do try it in blue and white as well, I think that would also be amazing! You rock at geometrical patterns.

I really like this. Good work ☺

Shame! It is such a helpless feeling..... AND knowing it could have been prevented!! Well, we never get too old to learn and to be reminded of things that we already know and practice...... patience, my dear Watson, patience.... Susan

This tabletop started out with the centrepiece. When I finished it, I quite liked it and decided that I want to make a complete mosaic. All the small pieces I made and the small rondels I painted by hand. Then came the tricky part..... to cut pieces of mosaic tiles to fit around the small pieces! Well, as was expected, it did not work unless I used a gazillion small fragments. So I ended up cutting the pieces in greenware, bisque fired it, fit and filed it and numbered it, glazed, fired and then put the whole jigsaw puzzle together. It was quite a job, but the end result to me is lovely. The mosaic is mounted on newtec board, and lies on top of the table. So it is removable if I just need a smooth table.

Sometimes when I make something that is really good or beautiful (in my eyes...), and somebody wants to buy it, then I feel like saying It's mine!!! But you cannot keep everything, and you also have to share your work... problem is just that I give it away as gifts and do not sell enough of it.... it drives my husband up the wall... hiehie!!

Amy..... I made this for a friend of mine... http://file:///Users/okkie/Desktop/Susan%20pottery/Mine!.jpg Hope you enjoy it.
