After class, I loaded another bisque kiln. Along with some terra cotta
work that is glazed inside. Luckily, they’re both firing to cone 04.
So it’s one kiln for all!

Layer #1 – terra cotta planters, ornaments & tiles… and two Patinkin cups.

Layer #2 – terra cotta planters, ornaments and even MORE tiles!
I love how the tiles stack and make a perimeter around the kiln. Funny.

Layer #3 – terra cotta drip trays and a couple test tiles for Karen Patinkin.
And you know how I hate open unused kiln shelf space… this killed me!

Layer #4 – terra cotta drip trays and a couple stamped square plates
by Karen Patinkin. Again, too much kiln shelf showing for my liking!

Layer #4-1/2 – my class demo stamped plate and the last water drip tray.

Layer #5 – topping off the kiln with some stacked bowls…
stamped & fluted but not fitting together in a stack as much as I would like.
Next time I need to remember to make different sizes so they stack better?!

And the two bowls that didn’t quite fit in… as much as I tried & tried.

And while I was loading my kiln, Lillstreet Artreach Director Jayson Lawfer
was loading his bowls in the kiln next to mine… and since he had a little space
left over, and some empty bowls… I was more than willing to “fill-in”
with some ornaments!
