Approaching The Finish Line

We’re certainly making headway now in our classes with soldering becoming the main thing on everyone’s mind. Billie needs to cut 8 corner pieces and she’ll be set to solder. Her window is tacked together for the most part right now:

Kim is almost finished grinding her Rooster window. She’s taken a lot of it home to wrap so she can be ahead of the game next week. When you get this far along you don’t want to stop working:

Julie has all but 2 pieces and her border cut, ground wrapped and tacked together. She’ll probably find that the 2 pieces we broke will be cut and ground for her when she comes back in next week. I doubt it will be a surprise since she reads this blog. :-)

Ann is finished cutting her window. She’s also finished grinding and wrapping her window. In fact, she’s even finished soldering the front of her window! With only the back side to solder she’ll be finished during the next class without a doubt. Keep your eyes peeled on our blog to see her finished piece next Thursday. This is the front of it, soldered and ready for a good washing:

Classes ran late today because we were all on a roll and having fun. No one had to be home and we were fine with having the shop filled with lively, talkative people so we worked until 5:30 or so before we started to get ready to call it a day. The music of choice was ABBA but when we finished listening to their 4 disc set we moved on to assorted hits from the 70’s.

And that was what we did yesterday, March 1st, 2006 during our stained glass classes.

    Yep Paul, not a huge suprise there! :)
    It’s really neat to see our projects in pictures. All of them look so good!

    Kim’s balloon is coming along nicely. I think she’s not a knack for glass making items.
