Putting the stringer part sheet strips as the bottom layer and capping with clear full sheet will reduce the spread of the stringer pattern. So build 1st layer on kiln shelf and cap. Perhaps add a bubble squeeze to the firing. Or glue down really well the way you did and flip over on shelf and fire. , etc. The version you did looks nice too.
Interesting approach. Thanks for sharing. I have another one coming that I used 2mm thin glass. I'm hoping that will clear the gap. I'm definitely curious about minimizing the bubbles since the sheet is on top. I'll definitely give it a try!
Of course. This is a pretty basic full fuse schedule. I recommend you use what works for your kiln, as they are all slightly different. 300-1000-0 9999-1450-8 9999-950-60 200-800-0 300-100-0 I used this for both firings, though your top temperature may vary by 10 degrees.
Great you just gave him the credit in your comment. I have never heard of him and he’s not the reason I posted, nor have I taken his class. I saw another artist making these and decided to figure it out
Yes, Richard should be credited with teaching many people how to make this and for being the guy that came up with the term Tapestry. Bullseye offers a Richard Class that is worth it.
If you have been fusing awhile you naturally figure some things out on your own, and the understanding becomes your own. I'm curious and experimental myself, but I'm also learning. Thanks for sharing this! @@kevinmcreekmore
Stringers are all the same, like angel hair pasta. Ends up being just over 4mm thick. 1 layer of clear with stringer on top, cut it up, then add it on top of another sheet of clear. Thanks for watching!
I love your video and will make one soon!. Just one question: Will it be ok to fused the stringers on a 2mm glass instead?. Will the schedule be the same?. Thanks!
Hi - Great video - Can I ask what is the make of the cutting mat you are using? Mine keeps sliding and I like the locking clips you have on that one. - Thank you
I love watching your videos. I was wondering if you had any suggestions on what my 1st glass fusing project should be in my new glass Kiln. I have experience with microwave kilns and pottery kilns but I am anxious to start glass in a glass kiln. What was your 1st project?
There are a few brands. My favorite is Skutt Kilns, but I also just purchased one from Olympic Kilns that I'm pretty happy with. I stay away from Jen-ken brand kilns as they may be cheaper, but you pay for it with breakdowns.

This is so cool. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Wonderful. Not that I'm really authorized but " bless you" . I hate having allergies
I’m very impressed with your work & I may try this at our club. Thanks for sharing!
I love the clear lines between the strips
Glad you like them! My next one I figured out now to get them matched right up! I’ll be posting that one soon!
Thanks Kevin - informative and fun!
Thanks for watching!
Love watching your videos! It's a real good way of learning! Thanks!
So glad you like them! Thanks for sharing!
Very interesting thanks for posting
Thanks for watching!
Very cool! Very beautiful! Thanks so much for sharing!!
I love how your experiments are massive pieces of art. My experiments are a fraction of your size...thats confidence!
Haha well thank you. I've been working with glass for 10 years, so I like to go big or go bigger!
Haha....Ive been working with it for 10 years too!
Gostei da técnica, da paleta e do desing 😃🌻
If you flip every other other strip with the stringers down you get a 3D effect that makes the "tapestry" really pop out.
I have seen that! Been playing around with how I do it

@@moltenworksglassstudio you can also dam the piece so that it doesn’t spread. Thanks for the video!
Would you mind to share your schedule? Love it. Thank you

imo, i kinda like it with the space imbetween. it looks intentional lol
Thank you!
credit should be given to Richard Parrish for the Tapestry technique and technique name

Loved this! Thanks for sharing! What is the yellow block on your Cutter's Mate grid that you are using to line up your cuts?
I use the Morton glass cutting system which includes these yellow stoppers to get exact measurements.
I have saved your video abd have a wurstion now. What size stringers and clesr glass you use. Whats the thickness after full fuse? Thanks

Yes that will totally work and it’s how I did the other tapestry I posted and talk about using 2mm. Be sure to check it out.
Hi - Great video - Can I ask what is the make of the cutting mat you are using? Mine keeps sliding and I like the locking clips you have on that one. - Thank you
I use the Morton Glass cutting system. Its been working great for many years!
Which page can you find Tapestry Fusing Test #1? I joined the Patreon page and can't find it?
Nice work! What kind of glue did you use?
I used glass tack on this. Doesn’t secure it right away but helps as you lay stringer down
I love watching your videos. I was wondering if you had any suggestions on what my 1st glass fusing project should be in my new glass Kiln. I have experience with microwave kilns and pottery kilns but I am anxious to start glass in a glass kiln. What was your 1st project?
Oh man so hard to remember what my first project was. Probably a square of clear with mosaic pieces clipped on top and fused, then shaped into a bowl.
Great video, but a couple of questions. Are you using 2mm or 3mm clear? Also, when you cut the 1/2 strips were you cutting with the stringer side up?
For this one 3mm glass. And I did cut on the stringer side, basically pick whichever side is smoother to cut on so you get good scores.
Could you have fired it w/out the clear base?
How are you breaking your glass sheet after you score it. It seems to just magically break on it’s own. What am I missing?
Haha it’s magic! Just kidding, I’m using a runner tool to break it once I score. It helps I’ve been cutting glass for a long time too.
hi. help me please with buying the fusing glass oven please? what is the name of it and the price for small one mate?
There are a few brands. My favorite is Skutt Kilns, but I also just purchased one from Olympic Kilns that I'm pretty happy with. I stay away from Jen-ken brand kilns as they may be cheaper, but you pay for it with breakdowns.
I noticed that you do not wash your pieces before you fire them. Finger prints can ruin a piece of fired glass!
schedule please.
Standard full fuse schedule. Your kiln may differ.

No Closed Captions?
I’m not sure what you mean?
@@moltenworksglassstudio I just meant that some of your videos had closed Captions but this one did not. Thats all :-)
