Been doing a bit of pattern reducing and have come up with Strelitzia's and humming birds in the second and 3rd sized whirls. i.e. 6" & 4" respectively. Nothing particularly exciting - but just to prove that I am doing something towards the 'Spring' themed small markets I have coming up next month.

ok, I think you get the title "Queen of Fiddley"! These are so nice and the addition of the hummer is really cool. You rock!

Thanks everyone. Yup, there are some pretty 'narrow pieces in the Strelitza's, but luckily as they are 'free form' there's a little room for 'variation'!  O.k. - Anne. I'll hang onto the 'fiddly' crown for now - till you find something to win it back! |

Nice! Do you make the patterns for those yourself, because some of those look pretty darn intricate?
You shouldn't have any problem selling them.

Yes, I do the interior patterns myself. I enjoy small and intricate! It 'feeds my soul'! People around my part of the world are not too quick to pay for hand work - so the biggest ones generally have to wait around for 'that one customer' (and the first of any new designs usually ends up in my 'constant customer's collection) - but the smaller ones go a bit better. The big thing is that they are eye-catching and draw people to look at other smaller stuff. Thanks again for all the kind comments - I know my stuff is not eveyone's choice! |

You make beautiful pieces. As far as not being everyone's choice, I think we can all relate to that with our own glass work. Keep up the great work! |
