In the pumpkin patch

For all the people and places in this hemisphere for whom autumn approaches, meet Julie Whitmore Pottery.  The piece shown is called There's A Bluebird in My Pumpkin Patch.  Her work has been described as French Faience style.  Each piece is hand-built and therefore one-of-a-kind 

Additional examples of Julie Whitmore's original art are here.

Don't you just want to go bake a pie or at least put on an apron and striped stockings?  I do and it's nearly 100 degrees here.  Her work is just that persuasive.
