OK Wayne I bet you thought I gave up, but I didn't. Just took me a while to gather the courage so here we go.... I have the glass for the flowers and the leaves so far. I'm not sure about the sky yet I Barb's choice but not sure if I would like a bit more blue. I still have to make copies which I plan to do tomorrow but anxious to learn this new process to me. Here are a few pics of the glass I have I hope they are workable as this is all Sunshine had to offer and wont be getting any more for quite a while. They are not the best pics.

Di, It looks like you have some nice glass for the flowers and the stems. The richer blue for the sky would have worked nice and now I see it would look great with the flowers. Possible that I may recut the sky. W will be along to start you off.

Di, the reds look good in the 1499. We can use parts of them very well for both the petals and stems.
I did send you a PM earlier. I forgot to ask about the Landscape background glass, do you have it?

My curiosity is piqued. It sounds like you are taking a class via this forum. What are you learning?

My curiosity is piqued. It sounds like you are taking a class via this forum. What are you learning?
A few months back, Wayne "challenged" (not the right word) 3 of us (Diane, Barbara and myself) to complete a project of his design using the methods he uses when selecting glass for the projects he does. Wayne drew 3 similar patterns (1 for each of us) and made recommendations for the glasses to use for each part of the panel. We ultimately selected the sheets of glass we would use. He has worked with Barbara on how to lay out her pattern so that she selected the areas to use that caused the most natural flow within the panel. Diane is just getting started on hers and I have yet to find the motivation to start mine. |

Ok, went to see a friend who owns a shop near here(I think you might remember her Wayne). She dosent carry much glass but she had the kokomo. I really like this glass and I hope it works well. Here are 2 pics one with and one without light. Now all I need is the landscape glass.

Di, the pictures look good. Since this is a panel, we are interested in the sun lit pictures while the other pictures would be used in a mosaic piece.
Do you have all four of the colors now?
