I loaded Bertha this morning, and this is one of the pieces I'm trying out. I stacked the stamen in the center like a Tee-Pee to let them fall where they may. I'm doing a contour fuse, followed by a slumping in the mold. I did the leaves as I did with the lavender tray, leaving a space between the 2 halves to contour down toward one another giving it a nice rounded contour appearance.

it's looking good Kev, and I would think if you were going to have had problems with this one you'd be seeing it already. The slump should be fine. Very pretty, like how it came out!
