the reason I switched from low fire to midfire: I had left a bowl (earthen ware) in the sink over night. My kid washed it and put it in the cabinet. A couple of days later when I took it out to use it a nice green fuzz was covering the unglazed bottom. Yuck!

bciskepottery,

thanks for those links. I discovered that Hsi-Mei, the teacher of Elizabeth Priddy, is teaching classes here in VA. I am looking into taking from her. When I started working in clay I would use underglaze to create the blue line work look It doesn't work to well. I am now experimenting with oxides.

I used a green, I think it was called celadon. I put a clear glaze on top. I wasn't impressed with the results. I used a lot of the wash and it seemed to fade. This was at cone 6 on white stone ware. I didn't think to use it with out a top glaze, may try that.

mregecko has much better looking results than I did.
