Chilly

Ouch, I feel your pain, Get well soon.

When I had my 2 shoulder surgeries, I had to sleep in my recliner for a month each time. If you have one you might try it...Hang in there and recover soon, Chilly!

Sleeping definitely the worst thing. Pile of pillows is helping. And busy during the day.

I couldn't get on either, I even e-mailed Joseph to see if he could get on. CMF accidently locked me out one time, so I was just checking I wasn't the only one.

I think there was something wrong with the website.

Yes. Jennifer got it fixed. She is the head administrator for CAD.

I wish you minimal pain and fast recovery.

I'm sure it will be a big relief to get it fixed. All the best with your recovery : )

Good luck Chilly, hope you recover quickly.

Her secret is, she does ALL the carving and then, only then, does she pop the cutouts. That way she has the integrity of the clay and can do much more intricate work.

I love pierced work so I thought you might like this tip. Not to take away from your vase which I think is absolutely gorgeous.

Thanks Giselle, I like the cut it all, then remove it process. The clay has to be just the right hardness, Too soft and it doesn't cut, too hard and you end up scraping it out. Will try this technique on the next one tho'.

need to see it!

Grats! Glad to see your recovering well.

Great to hear you're back.

Like riding a bike Have fun!
