Black Cat Pottery: Pillow Vases II: Rosette
http://blackcatpottery.blogspot.com/2014/02/pillow-vases-ii-rosette.html
Sunday, February 16, 2014. Pillow Vases II: Rosette. I slip all the pre-scored cut edges of the sections and join tops to bottoms, sandwiching them together. I use a combination of a fairly soft rubber kidney and a metal kidney to marry the pieces to one another. I use an elephant ear sponge to clean the join and work out any inconsistencies.

Saturday, January 26, 2013. After I "mastered" my Original Sunflowers and long before I even thought of making Fancy or Deluxe Sunflowers, I wanted to try my hand at making other types of flowers that could go on stakes. Daisies and daisy-like flowers immediately came to mind. Following the same routine I had developed with the sunflowers, I created templates for three sizes of daisy petals. Coats to get adequate coverage.) I load the pieces on stilts and fire to Cone 6. Once cooled, I make sure the hole...
