What I did on my summer vacation, 5



I'm part of a round-robin journal project this summer. We each complete a page in a journal and send it on to the next person. This was a page I did in a journal with the theme "Morocco".

A friend of mine brought a box of broken bowl parts to my door one day. She said her good friend Susie had taken the bowl to a picnic where it was dropped and broken. It had been a wedding gift and one of her favorites. Tearfully she dropped the mess into the garbage can. Later my friend, Zaida, pulled out the pieces and brought them to me and asked me to turn them into an art piece, for her birthday. What a good friend! The bands of the blue glazed pottery are the left overs of the bowl.
