Pit Fire

This past February I was able to participate in my first ever pit fire.  Pit fires are so unpredictable.  I think that is part of what makes them so much fun.  Any piece you put in the fire you have to count as a loss.  Anything that comes out successfully is just a treasure from the ashes.

There were quite a few of us participating in the fire.

This is way better than a camp fire.

Time to sift through the ashes.

Here are my two pieces of treasure.  I'll have them for sale at the Heritage Trail Pottery Tour this weekend.  Hope to see you there!
