Geometric polymer clay canes are fun to make because of their striking patterns and the many possibilities of combining them into a wide array of complicated designs. So on Friday, June 11th at the Polymer Clay Library<\/a> (Vol-025-2), the member video tutorial will teach you how to make a versatile geometric cane which is called the Mitered Corner Cane. It was first introduced in this post: Cirque de Cindy, Polymer Clay Circus Jewelry Necklace<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Very cool Cindy! I would like to learn the Mitered Corner Cane. <\/span>~Maureen-G<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The different combinations of the mitered canes just all look perfect. The colors go so well together. <\/span>~Peggy-B<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Oh Cindy, the colors you used on those canes are gorgeous and the canes are really cool! Please add to your member tutorials. I would love to learn how to make a cane like the ones you have done. <\/span>~Hobokenmary<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A really unique look. I think I sort of figured it out a bit but I would still love a tutorial because you always teach us how to perfect it and give us that something extra that makes it a special tutorial.<\/span> ~Cheryl-H<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I too can figure out the cane work but always still like your tutorials for the extra tips. You said it best – “I learned by making mistakes… Now you don’t have to.” <\/em><\/span>~Lawrence-S<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A tutorial on this would be great. Call me dense but I can not see how the mitered cane works, but then again I am geometrically challenged. When doing new baseboards in my mothers bedroom I cut the same wrong angle three times, fortunately I had added extra length in the baseboard knowing my ability to mess up angles. <\/span>~Ken-H<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I think the Mitered Corner Cane is a great idea. It looks fabulous, and you can make it simple, complex, or even more complex! I’d vote “yes” for a tutorial on this cane. I imagine you’ll have the process perfected, with tips to make it easy for us to create – sounds enjoyable to me! <\/span>~Phaedrakat<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Please Note:<\/strong><\/span> A general prerequisite for all of my weekly tutorials is that you have a good understanding of the polymer clay basics, including: conditioning clay, using a pasta machine, clay blade and other simple tools, making Skinner Blends or Teardrop Blends, baking clay, as well as sanding and finishing. If you need help in these areas, my Polymer Clay Beginners Course<\/a> will get you up to speed quickly. There is also plenty of free information on this blog.
