Which back issue is the skinner blend tear drop tutorial in. Thanks, will purchase as soon as I hear back from you, just got confused on your site :). I just want to make a 2 color skinner blend and was thinking that your teardrop tutorial may work for that. Thanks, Joeanns.

Thank you so much Pat for your comments! One of the reasons I made these videos is because of the problems I ran into making polymer clay beads. If I was having these problems, then others probably were too.

By helping you and others learn from the mistakes I made, hopefully you won't have to make as many mistakes yourself!

Cindy,

Found you while surfing a few days ago. The video you sent me on the Skinner Blend was probably the best I have seen. What I will be interested in when you get them done is making canes, the more advanced ones.

I also wanted to thank you on the info on storing clay. I just stuck them in baggie not knowing there would be problems. I have had a few left when I put the clay up for a while to take care of more pressing matters and boy was it hard to soften up again.

I should have no upcoming problems and should be able to work on the clay one night a week. Ones night goes to painting or drawing, one night go to counted cross stitch, one night go to jewelry making and one night is Bible Study.

Video was very well done. I decided to watch it even though a skinner blend is something I think I do fairly well. The water tip was good, sometimes my work area is warm and the clay is sticky. Also the butting it against the side of the pasta machine.

Hi Cindy,
Thank you for the tips on the Skinner Blend. It was really helpful. I had seen it done once before but it helps to see it more than once and of course put it into practice.
Thanks Again,
Pat Olive

One of the essential tools you'll need for making skinner blends is the trusty polymer clay pasta machine. Cindy Lietz's last blog post..A Basic Skinner Blend Polymer Clay Cane Project
