    "Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful." 
    William Morris

     

    ".... And we will mature, and some element will become visible in our work that comes from our innermost experience in life, something that no techniques, nor any amount of historical training or courses in 'design' could ever foster, something that is our own, and unique. For if a thing is conceived in the depths of our being, we will find a way to express it: it may be crude and unskillful, but it will be honest and intelligible." 
    Marguerite Wildenhain

     

    "The link between the hands of the maker and the hands of the user seems increasingly important to me in this world where we are often distanced from the sources of the things we rely on to sustain us."
    Charity Davis-Woodard

     

    "Vocation: . . .where your deep gladness and the world's deep hunger meet."
    Frederick Buechner

     

    "Nothing lasts, nothing is finished, nothing is perfect."

    events in and near seagrove this weekend.....

    Sometimes I get so involved in what's going on here at home, I somehow seem to miss stuff going on just down the road from me. While checking the local news online this AM, I came across an article describing this weekend in Seagrove as "Summerfest Weekend." I know this event has been in e-mails and in the local newsletter, but somehow the dates just didn't register with me. Although I'm not participating in the event, I'm firing my kiln today, and will have my new pots on the shelves by this weekend. So, if you're in town for Summerfest, stop by the museum and check out what they're up to, then slide on down 705 (south) about 1.5 miles, and take a left on Fork Creek Mill Rd., drive another 1.6 miles and you'll find me on the right. 

    ALSO.....

     Zimmerman's Vineyards is celebrating "Another Sisyphus Saturday" on June 19th from 5pm - 8pm. Entertainment will be provided by The April FoolsGoat Lady Dairy cheese trays will be available too.
