I made porcelain jewelry back in the eighty's. One day I poured blue and
white porcelain, each color from a separate bottle into a three corner
shape containment mold I had made to make a pendant. While the
porcelain was wet I used a toothpick to mix it just a little. I did not try to

to porcelain I didn't plan for the right measurement for shrinkage, over all
size is abou...

My first memories of learning started at age three and a half when I made my first doll dress.

I took the opportunity to make the the dress while she was in the hospital having my brother, I was allowed to use the machine after that. Most of my skills are self taught, In 1960 with 4 children under four and a half Years old, I started sewing, designing, pattern drafting, clothing construction and altering in my home studio....
