The Crafty Broad Imposter - Projects and Progress

Glass fusing? I never heard of it, I've been happily ignorant all my life of this wonderous creation. I'll have to look it up.........

How pretty! I had no idea. But what do you do with it? I can see it as an art form, I'm not much into what I call knick knacks, especially having to dust them. Something with utility, like a bowl, but I don't "serve" supper on a table, it's get it off the stove and go sit in my recliner in front of the TV. Supper has been served. It would be supercool to replace a few window panes to catch the setting sun and color up a room. Hanging glass pictures in a box type frame with a light behind it would show off a pretty piece. Would probably sell at the craft fairs that happen in the fall. It is a melted "stained glass" without the lead. Very pretty.

Thank you. I have plans for a bird bath. I also make Christmas ornaments as gifts. Once I get started again, I'll start my own crafting thread.

Went to work on trying to find my mistake. I haven't been able to find it. I did look more carefully at where things aren't lining up. I've figured out a way to fudge it. So there's that, at least

Also, I was looking at this picture of the completed pattern to see if where I messed up jumped out at me. I'm a bit annoyed by the lack of coverage in the right bottom hand corner.

I will probably stitch it as is but it wouldn't surprise me if I end up filling a lot of these white spaces. It looks unfinished to me.
Maybe I will feel different after I complete it but we'll see.

How funny, I was looking at the white area between the people thinking the same thing. As far as the "mistake" goes, maybe it is not a mistake at all. It is your own design and I don't see anything wrong with it. It all looks great to me!

Unfortunately it's a mistake. I'm short two rows somehow. it matters because it's where the people's silhouettes are against the Titanic's hull, so its an obvious spot. I figured out a way to fudge one of the figures but I will have to stitch him last.
