Pottery Sale

Yesterday was a day for being social and gently thinking about Christmas shopping. I went to a pottery sale at Lynley Northcott's house. It was great to see her and her work in her home environment. And I will never again complain about the amount of stuff at my house--a potter's stuff is so much more bulky--and fragile. I'm glad I'm a textile artist. On the other hand, here's a pic of Lynley's kitchen floor:

The whole thing is one big mosaic. I love it! Great colours, it's inspiring and lively and functional and just Wow!

I bought a couple of little things and my friend M bought quite a few things. Then we went on to High St for Crepes and a sit in the shade. It was a good day.

Thank You Lynley

This lovely thing is a tea set made by Lynley Northcott:
It surprised me with it's loveliness when I was at the Neighbourhood House yesterday. I was there to do some preparation for Neighbourhood House week . . . "and while you're here, could you take some photos of this" Lynley is the pottery teacher at the House. She has donated this tea set to be raffled. Now I'm not really into raffles, I'm not really into pink and white and I'm not really into tea sets. But, ooooooh . . . what can I say . . . this makes me smile and reach out!
