Sgraffito Vase and Funky Container

I made some progress on my sgraffito vase, I think the result is pretty good :

Another angle:

On a previous vase, I have sgraffito'd the background, leaving a pattern of green leaves.  This time I wanted to sgraffito a white floral pattern against a green background.  I was inspired by this pattern which I found when I googled for "white on green" or something like that :

Last time I was in the studio, I tried again to throw a double walled vessel.  I did a much better job than the first attempt, but was not quite successful in getting the two walls to close, and I think they were too thin, they already started warping.

I was afraid that the walls would collapse if I continued to coax them together, so I went with Plan B instead :

I think this could still be a pretty funky and practical vase, if my joins dry successfully.
