This little girl entertained me for the duration of more than 10 hours of flight from the far east to Midwest US. She was traveling with her mom and dad and a younger sibling. I read and dozed off at times but so pleased to have a little fun distraction during the long flight.

8.5”x10-1/4” flower pot.
First made a 4.5” tall cylinder, then added coils to reach the height of
10”. I used the metal rib to smoothe the walls inside as well as outside.
Waiting to trim the bottom to make a footing and a drainage hole.

Weekend trip to Burlington, VT. Got together with friends and family, food, drinks, activities by the Lake Champlain and a little browsing at the Church Street Mall. Everything was so expensive nowadays.

My first pedestal bowl. I’ve tried to make one before with no success.
Feeling proud of succeeding it this time. I made a bowl and a cylinder, trimmed them, then attached them together with slip. A little more trimming at the end. 😂
