well that was a flop
so much of one, I am not even going to post pictures. I knew there was a reason to be afraid to open the kiln door. Instead of a tile of nice pretty bling, some from free form dichroic, some from the glass clay, I have nice free form dichroic bling and clay blobs that don’t look like awareness ribbons at all. Looks like I will be rethinking how I use the powdered glass and binder. I have not given up at all, just backing up a few steps and taking a different direction then attempting to cane from it.
on a different note, while looking for my pickle solution, I found a ton of PMS and cork clay I totally forgot I had. Almost like winning the lottery 
So, I may be doing a combination of glass and PMC soon. decisions decisions.
Have a happy creative day!
