Blue Moons

This is a piece I made and framed in an antique ornate frame that was once a dresser mirror. I am always looking for interesting frames to use for my pieces, and this worked wonders. The piece is actually glazed in on both sides, so there is enough give that it shouldn't cause stress fractures, but snug enough so there is no rattling.

Making the Pattern
by: Lisa Seger

I actually just traced the mirror that came out of the frame. But then of course, the piece grew as I was assembling and soldering, so my husband had to do a little routing out of the frame in order to make the piece fit. Thank God he is so handy with the router because my pieces often grow when I am assembling, and then don't fit the frame. According to Sue, I need to be scoring my pieces inside my traceline, not outside or down the middle of the trace line. I tried that on a piece I made yesterday and it worked like a charm. (Thanks again Sue!)

Combing Stain Glass with Antique Frames
by: Joyce

This is beautiful!! I also look for old frames from dresser tops that I can use to compliment my glass. When measuring inside the frame to determine the glass size, what rule do you follow to get a proper fit?
Thank you.
