Another Class Begins

We’ve started a morning class that runs from 10:00am to 1:00pm to make some more room for people who can’t fit into our night or afternoon classes.  One of our students that we had lined up was unable to make it in so we only had one person in our class this morning.

Michelle was a little unsure of how she’d do throughout the entire process of making this butterfly, but her fears were all unfounded.  She’s a natural at this and had no problem whatsoever.  After a quick glass cutting lesson she decided on making her butterfly in shades of green.  She used a translucent glass for both the wings and the body, with the body being darker than the wings.  For the head she chose and iridescent yellow glob.

Her cutting was flawless which meant that she had very little grinding to do to make everything fit together.  Michelle also wrapped her pieces evenly and quickly on the first shot.  In fact, I didn’t even have to retouch her soldering at all.  This is what she walked away with when the day was finished.

Michelle has decided to make an Iris window for her first project. She’s picked her colors and will be ready to start cutting glass next week.
