First Friday Opening Success

Leola's First Friday Art Opening @ Aurora Fine Arts was a great success! A large crowd turned out and a vessel was sold soon after the show opened.

Thanks to all who came to show your suppoort. It meant a lot to me to have so many family and friends come to the opening.

For those who couldn't make it on Friday, the vessels will be on display (and for sale) at Aurora Fine Arts in downtown Anchorage on 5th & G Street throughout the summer.

Bunnies in Baskets for Easter

Happy Easter!
A baskets full of bunnies. The "Bali Bowl" baskets I made in Rebecca & Ally's FVCS sewing class were the perfect complement to the hand knit cotton washcloths I'd been making in my down time. Just rolled up the cloths and tied with leftover yarn to make the bunny ears. Fun project. Hope my family likes their Easter gifts this year. I've given them so much pottery over the years that I thought other hand made crafts would be nice for a change. Always fun to try something new.
