I never really liked this egg, made with a cane that was supposed to look like a quilt. (It does have flower petals in it, from a person who was a quilter and I was trying to make some kind of a keepsake egg in commemoration.) Some how it was a little too chaotic and I wasn’t that happy with the colors. So the other day i decided to cut it in half (not difficult with a blade and a pin to poke through the two layers (first layer was translucent polymer clay) and twist the two two halves apart. The purpose was to insert a row of flowers between the layers to look like they were kind of “trapped”. I added some black paint (which didn’t take that well) behind the flowers to accentuate. Education is costly sometimes, in terms of time, but unless I learn by experimenting, I go nowhere.
