I made this piece during our last class. The glass was *really* low and I had to gather a few times to get enough glass with which to work, which was unusual for me because I usually gather way to much glass.

After gathering the glass, I rolled it in this funky green that is a little more acid green than emerald. I then blew it out and moved it to the pontil rod and widened the opening. I then took it back to the heat and kept the rim in the heat and spun the edge out. Once it was to the point I wanted, I pulled it out and held it vertically. I spun a little, which I wasn't supposed to do, and I ended up with slightly uneven fluting.

I love the end result. It is really level and the flutes look like a rounded star from above. I also like that this bowl is light as a feather because I used a small amount of glass. I made this pieces for my youngest, older sister.
