A new litter of cosmic piggies has arrived! They are still in the drying process and will require bisque firing, glazing and glaze firing before the can leave the nest. I'm hoping they will be available before Christmas! Here's what their "birthing" photos look like. I'm certain they will be even more beautiful after their final glaze firing! Hope you enjoy the photos.
