I've spent the last couple of days photographing some new work, and trying to get a bit of clarity on where I'm going with it all! Things are still a little fuzzy, but i'll just keep plodding along until the fog clears!! In the meantime, I'm having fun playing with guns! The porcelain gun above is the result of some experimenting I've been doing with water jet cutting. I've been cutting up glass and crystal platters and ceramic plates, and am about to start playing with melamine saucers and wooden bowls and all kinds of interesting little bits and bobs. The gun started life as a depression era glass platter. I had the gun shape cut out of the platter....

Hey Mel, s'me, Loani. Just found a link to your blog via a knitting blog. Yep. How about that. Round and Round we go. Feffakookan and all the stuff on it is beautiful. Well done girl. But what does it MEAN? Feffakookan?
Can't get my own blog link right:-)Do want you to take a peek.
Hi Loani! Its a german biscuit my nana used to make! I think it's actually spelt "pfeffercuchen" but I always imagined it spelt "feffakookan", so stuck with that!
