Lampwork life in a nutshell:
I use both Pyrex and soft glass (never together)
I use a starfire torch but have 3 or 4 others.
I use tanked air.
I have a kiln and know how to use it. ;)

Frequently Asked Questions:

How do you pronounce your name?

It is Jiley, rhymes with ~Smiley~.  I actually had a lady argue this with me once, but I was pretty confident with the pronunciation so I think I won.

Where did your name come from?

It was my great grandmother's.  It was derived from ~Jamie's child~.   It is Irish.

Do you always wear jeans?

Yes.

How old are those Birkenstocks?

12 years and counting. (One resole and one complete reconstruction – my Birkie doctor is the best).
