Making handles under the warm sun

The weather is up, down and all over the place at the moment. It was pouring down on Saturday, snowing on Sunday and first thing today, beautiful spring sunshine..now it looks like it might snow again!

I spent this morning trimming cups and putting some handles on espresso cups..very enjoyable it was too, with the Beatles on the radio and the sun streaming in through the window.

Here's an example with a new handle design I've not tried before. Is the handle too big for the cup? I'm not sure yet, I'll wait and see how it looks and feels after the glaze firing.
