miss_meme_30 joined the room
Shargoose=Sharon V in TN: :)
marlea_anderson: I had trouble with my pinch pot but I think it's
because I didn't condition the cane before I sliced...tried to
condition after slicing but didn't want to distort it too much-
ended up a little hard. you live and learn
countrylady100ca: Hi Missy
countrylady100ca: <<<< Sonya, Canada

ya into my MSN addy book..
mommaclara2001: Do the pinch pots not colapse, when baking?
marlea_anderson: on the new pots...do you make it like normal then
push it in?
Fearless Leader: these were made with long necks and then the neck
was jammed back into the body of the pot, for this "turtle neck" look
Shargoose=Sharon V in TN: Marlea go t o this site
http://tinyurl.com/59zuw last pics are showing how to do this pot
marlea_anderson: cool

kittekattz: I'm presuming they're "hollow" on the inside, right?
what do you use to hollow out the inside .. they don't look big
enough to use your fingers
Fearless Leader: Marlea thank you for helping Missy
Shargoose=Sharon V in TN: go to limk above Kitte
marlea_anderson: trying to nj, the blind leading the blind I'm afraid
Shargoose=Sharon V in TN: link
Fearless Leader: Kitte... you make sure that the bottom of the pot
and the sides of the pot are as thick or thin as you want the
finished pot. Keep the rim wide at that point.
Fearless Leader: when you get the bottom of the pot and the sides of
the pot the thickness of the finished pot then you can start to
constrict the neck of the pot. Shall we do a quick pinch pot for
review?

meplus5kids: Does Jean Squared mean we're boring?
stargazer_sbpcg: naw....
Fearless Leader: Ok, now I connected the Tiger leaves at the wide
end, and closed off what will be the bottom of our pinch pot. Hey
Elissa.
stargazer_sbpcg: couldn't happen... :)
meplus5kids: olol
meplus5kids: lol
rjchase222: Hey NJ I like that just like it is! :)
Fearless Leader: now this is the simplest pinch pot design. For if
we just attach these at the seam we got a pot.
elissaheart: hi, nj
stargazer_sbpcg: oooh purty!
Fearless Leader: at this stage it looks like a Tiger Tulip
rjchase222: I'm goin to use some of my "dcf's" to make a pinch
pot! :)
Fearless Leader: so Tulips can be made this way too, yes?
kittekattz: very pretty!!!!
rjchase222: OOOOOOOOOOOo thank u I was wondering how to do
tulips!!!!!!
Fearless Leader: also when the rim is wide open, this is when we
make sure that the bottom and the sides of the pot are at the
thickness you want the final pot to be.
Rossija: Hmmm. Another flower to add to my mini vases.
Fearless Leader: Razma, you know flower petals, make flower petals
the way you find them in nature and build your flowers from that,
never fails.
rjchase222: NJ that is one thing I've been trying to do the natural
way.
hlynn1975 joined the room
rjchase222: I've learned one thing one shldn't have long finger
nails when workin with clay!!! :)
mommaclara2001: I can;t get mine to stay together.
hlynn1975: agreed! not only do you mark the clay but it's hard to
get out from under your nails.
Fearless Leader: are you using Kato or Premo, Momma?
meplus5kids: Must have been reading my mind. Just thinking to do
this I'd have to cut my nails
hlynn1975: NJ, is that a 'tiger lily'? lol
Fearless Leader: LOL
Fearless Leader: Exactly
Fearless Leader: Tiger lily, LOL
Rossija: tiger tulip?
mommaclara2001: I am not sure. It is a cane that I got from someone.
Fearless Leader: It needs to be warmed a bit or it won't stick
together
mommaclara2001: It might be to old.
Fearless Leader: might be cold
mommaclara2001: I will keep working on it.
Fearless Leader: remember under the flubbies to warm a cane?
stargazer_sbpcg: flubbies?
mommaclara2001: Oh, yes.
Fearless Leader: he he he
rjchase222: mommaclara just bring it here to Fallbrook CA we're 85
outside right now!
hlynn1975: clay is never to old, it just needs some loving. Carry it
around in your bra next to your heart for a few hours.
marlea_anderson: lol i think i have a pinch vase...
mommaclara2001: Not a prett picture.
marlea_anderson: flubbies- love it
Fearless Leader: LOL, Stargazer we put our cold canes under our
breasts to warm it
mommaclara2001: Well it is 44 here.
kittekattz: Oh I'm so jealous ... 85 degrees? We just warmed up to
freezing!
Fearless Leader: since mine are not "perky" they are "flubbies"
stargazer_sbpcg: me too... i just never heard them referred to
as "flubbies" before...
Fearless Leader: someone called it that at a demo and it's been
making me laugh every since.
stargazer_sbpcg: ah... btdt boobs...
stargazer_sbpcg: lol
Fearless Leader: for that's what mind do, flub about, flipping,
flopping and flubbing
marlea_anderson: lol
mommaclara2001: Not me either. But leave it to Nj, to come up with
the cute things.
hlynn1975: mine are on their way to flubbie, I guess I have
perbbies, or flurky's :)
stargazer_sbpcg: can you throw them over your shoulder?
marlea_anderson: lol
Fearless Leader: flurky's... LOL
marlea_anderson: like a continental soldier
Fearless Leader: making me laugh with my mouth full, I'm catching
bites of lunch in between typing and pinching the pot.
hlynn1975: lol, I love that song!
stargazer_sbpcg: lol
stargazer_sbpcg: marlea got it!
marlea_anderson: lol
mommaclara2001: I may have to miss a bit. Trying to fix dinner too.
hlynn1975: anyone know where I can find a list of the color's premo
is no longer making in 1lb sizes? Hubby's giving me money to buy
clay for Christmas and I want to make sure I get my favs.
marlea_anderson: I'm eating a hoagie while claying too

marlea_anderson: lol- gotta love em- don't have to cook
Shargoose=Sharon V in TN: Now I know Why I don't like making complex
canes!!
Shargoose=Sharon V in TN: This one is taking forever
hlynn1975: you're all making me hungry. I think I'm going to have to
get out my left over chocolate cake from Outback.
Fearless Leader: Ok, now, since the leaf shape tapers, the pot will
taper automatically just by connecting the edges, see?
rjchase222: hlynn u goin to share?????????? yummy!!!!!!!!

Fearless Leader: Ok, it is time for a log save and I'll go out and
