Rocio has been working on other projects, so I think the soft glass one could be a few months out.

I would like to chime in here and tell everyone that the tutorial is fabulous! But I must say, Ron goes the extra step if you need a question answered. This tutorial would work just as well for soft glass, you just need to use your imagination for color combos. Thank you Ron!

Have not had a chance to try out the tutorial yet, but it looks wonderful. And I got my marble yesterday - oooh, to be able to do something like that, even as lovely simple a flower!

I was very happy when I received the tutorial with all the wonderful information......I was thrilled when I opened a box that came in the mail today and found the marble Ron sent me!!!!!!!!!!!! I had forgotten about it so that made it that much more of a surprise! The marble is Huge, 1 1/4 inches, and the blue flower is out of this world! Thank you so very much Ron!

Thanks everyone!
I have been making marbles non-stop for the past few weeks. The next update will have a few versions of the Morning Glory flower which will also teach a new tenchnique. Of course, there will also be a few more color combos shown as well.
Thanks for the feedback and please keep in touch with questions and pics of what you are making!

What a stunningly good tutorial!!
At first sight it doesn't seem to have that much content but just sit and read it all the way through and be amazed at all the gems of information it contains.
So much is now crystal clear that I was a bit hazy on and so much that I just didn't know.
This tutorial should come with it's own light bulb for you to hold over your head for the many a-ha moments it contains.
Can't recommend highly enough,
Rob.

Hi Ron
I have a minor and tanked oxy. Would these techniques work with this set up? I have been able to make "Mr.Smiley" hearts (about 1 1/4 x 3/4 inch). I hope you say yes, because I'm getting hooked on my limited supply of boro.
Thanks

Hannahbeads... Not sure if I answered this in another thread. Yes... the minor can make marbles 3/4 up to 1 1/8" very well... and 1 1/4" with a little extra time.
JesterGlass, Thanks for answering too.
Ron
PS- The last add-on of reds went out this moring.
Thanks Everyone!

I'm looking forward to getting my marble as well. In the meantime, I'm trying to get all the different glass colors to try new flowers.

Ron,
I received the marble in yesterday's mail. Thank you. It is great. I was wondering how you got the underside of the outer layer of petals to be solid green when the petals are striated. Double petal lines? And what green did you use. It appears to be one of the sparkly greens which are usually very difficult to deep incase without checking.
Thanks pjh
