Falling Short

Sometimes I start my production runs with goals that seem easily achievable and it turns out that I didn't come anywhere close and I can't really explain why. Some days the pots appear as if by magic under my fingers and other days it's tedious. Today seems to have been a tedious day. I crushed, cut through, collapsed or otherwise ruined at least 1/2 dozen pieces. The ones I did complete didn't come with any sort of grace. This is a picture of my hard won pieces. Note the little bowl you can barely see in the middle...it started as lid for a butter keeper. now it's a shallow bowl..cute, but not what I intended. *sigh*
After I finished these I wedged up some pieces for goblets tomorrow. I hope it's one of those magical production days :)
