It's All Relative

I recently learned that Clarice Cliff is my relative. As she was born, lived and worked in Stoke on Trent it wouldn't be such a shock. She even looks a lot like my Nana in some photos. I know little about her (and am not a big fan, to be honest, of the house and tree designs but like her more abstract ones a lot more) but it kind of makes sense that she would be a relative of mine since my Nana used to paint plates and I recently started really getting into it. I visited the Worcester porcelain museum a couple of weeks ago and loved it. I am planning a trip to Stoke to see my cousins soon so I will definitely be dropping into the museums there to find out more.

Oh, and I finally got my bowl back from being glazed. I will take photos soon. Not bad for a first ever attempt. I am going to sign up for pottery classes in the next few months as I've never tried that either.

Jumble Fun

Next Sunday's jumble sale

The first one was a success last month so I'll be selling my wares again next Sunday. Pop along to say hello if you're in the area.

Weird

I tried to take a photo the other day and three came out at once:

I can't figure out what was going on there...

A Few Films I Like/Love

Nanook

My boyfriend bought this book for me in A. Scwab. Amazingly, in a rare state of non-movement, I managed to get a photo of Nanook standing on it.

Next Show
