Jocelyn – Do you know I haven’t timed myself – I get totally lost when I’m claying, time has no meaning. I intend to make sheets and wrap stuff like glass votives, vases and boxes.

I would love to see some of your guys works of art! Big hint!

I couldn’t get to my computer yesterday and so didn’t have an opportunity to add my compliments on your beautiful work in a timely manner. These beads are absolutely lovely and when finishing here I am heading to my craft room to try the faux raku using marbled scrap clay. It’s nice, too, to hear of others’ struggles when trying a new technique-sorta gives one the push to keep going. Elizabeth

How long does it take you to complete each complex cane? Do you just apply the canes to beads?

These kaleidiscope patterns are amazing.

Polyanya: I too think your beads are very very lovely. With my dial up connection, the pictures are still a little fuzzy for me, but I “get the idea.”
Keep up the good work!

I’d love to answer you all personally but I’d better not take up too much of Cindy’s web-space, but there were a couple of questions which I’d like to answer –

Ken – Sadly Shetland is part of the UK although lies closer to Norway, be great to have independence though!

Carrie – Its really easy, just a bunch of bulls eye canes that are cut up length ways and arranged to form a triangle – you should try it.

Lisa – not a question exactly but definitely buy the back issues, I’m working my way through them and buying one every month, same price as a magazine and I don’t buy those so doesn’t cost me much.

Thanks to Cindy too for the finishing tips for the beads.
