Bayou Salé GlassWorks

We got started right on time today with Ann, Billie, Kim, and Julie. Ann is making a flower window that I don’t have a picture of because I forgot to snap pictures while we were all working. She took the white pieces home with her to wrap (we call it homework) so we can cut the background while using the glass flowers as pattern pieces next week.

Julie is moving right along also. She’s making a 42 x 12 window based on an old traditional style pattern. She also has ‘homework’ this week but we have half the window here and you can see what the basic idea is.

Kim’s rooster window is all cut save for the sun. She’s still a little unsure as to what color she wants the sun to be so we’re leaving it blank for now. Next week she’ll be at the grinder most of the class getting everything to fit perfectly.

Last, but not least, we have Billie’s window which features her house number. She’s got everything but the background and the border cut, ground and wrapped. Although it looks like there’s a lot of work left, there isn’t.

The music of choice today was Neil Diamond’s Greatest hits Volumes I and II, plus his latest CD. Last week we listened to most of the Bee Gee’s hits and the week before it was all of Hall and Oates top 40 hits (28 of them I think).

Myself, I have 2 windows in the works and Russ is working on a new panel for the front door. More on these windows later…
