Fun with Glass

I took a glass class a little while ago with some other gals.  We went to Calypso Glass Studio in Bremerton for a few hours of fun.  This was a first for me...I've never worked with glass before.   After spending a little time on learning to score and cut the glass we were set free to create.   I created like a quilter!  Hee, hee.   I had my scraps of glass just like my scraps of fabric....cut and designed till I had some thing I liked.   We left our creations to be fused in the kiln and picked up later.

Practicing; Bins of scraps in the colors I was using; Fellow creators

Final creation.

My finished plate after fusing....too many bubbles means I didn't clean & dry well enough, I think.  Boo hoo.  My son likes the bubbles, though.  Maybe he should get this for Christmas?   :)
