I finished my Coasters Yes Indeedy!!

I can't show them to you until after the swap but I took lots of photos and will post them along with the coasters I receive. I can hardly wait!! 

Boy that was a chore.... took me forever to decide what  I wanted to do and then I almost ran out of white clay, and I needed lots of white clay and then my muse decided to take a break, it's hard to create when your muse is on vacation, mine just wanders off at the most inopportune times.  

I was concerned I wouldn't make the deadline but I did, even had a few days to spare.... aw yes, feels good, I am patting my self on the back.   

 Turns out I am not the only procrastinator.... yes, there are more... I'm not naming any names,  you know who you are..... it's a real nail biter, will they.... or won't they?   A couple folded under pressure and bailed out, one is down due to injuries and we have a couple valiant clayers determined to meet the Sept 1st deadline.  They pop up with a progress report from time to time and then, wiping the sweat from their brows, they dive back in.  Only time will tell.

In the mean time I made some canes with the left over coaster clay. I also made some beads and pendants but I haven't sanded them yet.
