Glass Blowing According to Wikipedia

January 5, 2012 by Cathi Milligan

I’ve been playing with glass blowing lately…mostly with borosilicate glass. I keep getting requests at my studio for classes so I figured I’d better get good at it. I’ve dabbled and played but now I’m actually studying. Don’t I have enough glass techniques to know about? (not really, you can’t get enough glass, can you?) So I thought I’d explore glass blowing here too. A good start is with Wikipedia and traditional glass blowing. I’ve tried that too but don’t have quite the interest since so much equipment is required. Won’t rule it out completely but one thing at a time. Wikipedia does give a bit of information regarding blowing and they always have suggestions for further reading. You Tube is also a fabulous source of information on blowing. Both boro, lots of boro, and off hand. Take your pick. And it’s so much fun to watch!

Etsy Spotlight: Whole Store Bundle – Sewing Patterns

Okay, sewing friends… this one’s a total dream come true! If you’re anything like me and you love the thrill of planning your next sewing project before you’ve even finished the current one, then you’re going to fall head over heels for this Whole Store Bundle of sewing patterns. ?

This incredible bundle includes all the patterns from the shop – and it’s packed with flattering, wearable designs for every season, occasion, and mood. From breezy summer dresses to elegant staples you can layer up in cooler weather, this collection covers everything.

Here’s why I’m extra excited about this:

 It’s an amazing value – seriously, the cost of just a few patterns gives you access to the whole lot.

 Perfect for a capsule wardrobe – you can mix and match these pieces endlessly, customizing fabrics and lengths to your personal style.

Great for upcycling too – imagine giving old curtains, tablecloths, or thrifted fabric a whole new life as a chic handmade outfit!

Whether you’re just getting into garment sewing or you’ve been stitching up your own wardrobe for years, this bundle is a total win. And let’s be honest… there’s nothing better than saying, “Thanks! I made it myself.”
