To help with a large project my wife is working on, I was enlisted to prepare "tiles" with the name "Once In A Blue Moon". These were one of my first attempts to manufacture "lettering" and the results were quite good. While the clay was still "wet" I used a "scoop blade" and a lettering template to make the letters. Followup glazing was done with a white glossy fill and Kathy's Opal Blue.
The "Blue Moon" was a rolled slab cute with a circular bowl and scored with a straight edge to form "mysterious canals". Glazing was done with a variety (unknown now) of glazes to achieve a "patchy" effect.
