From among the glazes for cone six that the group recently supplied, I chose
three to test. They were cream breaking red, chappel floating blue, and
brass/gold metallic. I tried them all on miller #75, individually and over
and under one another. Each one was better than the next, although my
favorite is the chappel's over cream breaking red. I have taken the liberty
of sharing these with ceramics majors at the Maine College of Art. Thanks
to you all for these recipes.

Hi..... I'm glad you had such luck. Can you tell me what is miller#75? Is
it a porcelain, a stoneware buff or dark? I have a stoneware beige (some
iron content), I'd like to try them over. What do you think? TIA Emily in
