Bet you can't guess one of my favorite colors! I can't show any of the neat pieces that Nancy made because they are all packed up for this weekend's show in her car.<br />
<br />
It's Gerald making those VT trays that fly off the shelf at each show. He is now officially part of our team. <br />

My bowl is done! It is the deepest mold I've ever used AND I had to open the kiln while it was running (at 1225 degrees) and look in to see if the glass had dropped to the bottom. Even with the special green glasses (not a true fashion look) and heavy leather glove, that handle gets hot) it was a scary thing to do.Christinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11025247116695606565noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2651841014691716490.post-71713834965032296452011-09-07T10:34:00.000-04:002011-09-07T10:43:25.043-04:00September 7I'm finally going to use my deep bowl mold. First I'm fusing a two layer disk, then I will slump it in the mold. This is a tricky one (bullseye glass, the manufacturer of it said so) I have to put on special green glasses and look in the kiln to stop the slump when the center hits bottom. That will be tomorrow when the disk comes out of the kiln.<br />
<br />
The pictures were taken this morning with poor light, it is pouring rain here, and the camera needs to be recharged.<br />

Here in humid Virginia "fuzzy" hair days happen a lot but pop on a sun bonnet and the most wonderful transformation occurs - right to movie star glamorous! The only problem is by dusk hat head happens and it does look odd when I keep that wide brimmed chapeau on at dinner in a restaurant!Christinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11025247116695606565noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2651841014691716490.post-62684396720626010502011-06-03T10:02:00.000-04:002011-06-03T10:02:49.514-04:00<span lang="EN">Yeah, finally made it to TNK - Tuesday knit night after way too many weeks. Had a very relaxing time and got several rows done on my feather and fan. <br />
<br />
In March my sister and I did a weekend show in Virginia Beach and on Mother's Day weekend Gerald and I did the Gosport Arts Festival in Portsmouth.....pictures below. I really love my new kiln because we can make larger pieces.<br />
<br />
Gerald and I have also been taking a lampwork bead class from </span><a href="http://www.bradpearsonglass.com/"><u><span style="color: blue;"><span lang="EN">Brad Pearson</span></span></u><span style="color: blue;"></span></a><span lang="EN"> who is the most amazing lampwork artist and a great teacher. I'm now saving up to go from my Hothead torch to a minor burner (it uses both oxygen and propane). The good thing about Gerald taking the class is he no longer warns me not to burn down the house! I'll get some pictures of our beads on another post.</span><br />

Everyone told me this was a simple/basic pattern that would be easy to learn - I had my doubts but it is coming along and I've memorized the pattern.<br />

I thought it was not due until Thursday. <br />
<br />
Saturday I finished my last show of the season at Gar-field HS put on by the Orchestra Boosters. Sold all but one of my Holly Berry plates that are great for pillar candles. I have very little jewelry left so I will need to get busy making glass for 2011...but that can wait until after Christmas.<br />
<br />
I must have caught something there - I have a scratchy throat and sound like a frog, feel stuffy, have a low grade fever and little energy.Christinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11025247116695606565noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2651841014691716490.post-57671838432015894572010-12-06T23:39:00.000-05:002010-12-06T23:39:51.917-05:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhlGtdJEDve_XyPFL00Fk4EtQ-t9_qyslKo4YjHJjtxTFXXzi-6pq_k1gcSDk72DKvxwOjHMm8etGZL9y3gccfLLbxhQzzoxcHgxam6GBZApgs8y3R2bKXUL4tk56xPVJc9Tb8hOi4W3M/s1600/Imported+Photos+00003.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" ox="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhlGtdJEDve_XyPFL00Fk4EtQ-t9_qyslKo4YjHJjtxTFXXzi-6pq_k1gcSDk72DKvxwOjHMm8etGZL9y3gccfLLbxhQzzoxcHgxam6GBZApgs8y3R2bKXUL4tk56xPVJc9Tb8hOi4W3M/s320/Imported+Photos+00003.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Gerald made a nice fire the Sunday after Thanksgiving.

If I went too hot or too long I knew I would have a big white stretch with black streaks so I have anxiously been waiting to open the kiln lid.

After our show on Saturday I stayed on. Had to take Nancy to Bethesda to see the opthomologist she woke up seeing flashing lights, we were concerned that it was a detached retina but it was some of the gel breaking off as it liquified and must have hit the optic nerve.<br />
<br />
Nancy will be coming in tomorrow so we can set up tomorrow night at St. Christopher's for their bazaar. There is a preview night on Friday the open to the public on Saturday. If you can come by and say hi to us I know Nancy would love to see all you.<br />
<br />
When she was small Nancy was going to a farmer - that didn't work out but she grew some glass pumpkins. What do you think?<br />

This Saturday I'll be at the River City Knitters Market Faire at Imperial Plaza (1717 Bellevue, 23227), along with about 14 other vendors. The show is open to everyone so grab a friend and shop! You will find goodies to indulge yourself and get a start on holiday or birthday shopping. <br />
<br />
I have some new shawl/scarf pins - they are also good to close up sweaters with. Here are a few of the new pendants and one pair of earrings. You'll have to come to the Faire on Saturday to see more!<br />

He will report to the hospital on Tuesday and begin Interleukin-2(IL2) treatment. He will be in the hospital for a week and receive treatment every 8 hrs - home for a week to regain strength and back to the hospital for another week of treatment. The doctor said there is 10% chance of recovery and 30% chance of remission.<br />

It was so exciting to be with glass artists from all over the country. <br />
We have to get that kiln fired up tomorrow because we shows the next two weekends. This Saturday (May 1) we will be at St. Michael's Episcopal School for Magic Dragon Day - that sounds like fun. Then, while Nancy is flying off to England, I will be in the Fan for the Strawberry Street Festival. I love strawberries so I'm hoping one of my friends comes by so I can run out and by some berries and those goodies made with them that I have read about.<br />
<br />
I'll post pictures as things come out of the kiln!Christinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11025247116695606565noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2651841014691716490.post-29211609535376772992010-04-23T21:08:00.000-04:002010-04-23T21:08:45.216-04:00Daisy Day's festival tomorrow!Give your Mom a one of a kind gift for Mothers Day.
