These began as a 10" x 10"
sheet. A bottom layer of black then nine 1/2" squares of blue (a
couple have an orange square or two) separated by 1/2" strips of
ivory. Then black powder was brushed into the cracks. I
tried to fit the ivory very tight so there would be no black at the
seams but it was fruitless because the black from the bottom seeped
up. After firing to full flat fuse the sheet was cut into 2" x 2"
squares, down the center of the ivory strips. The resulting 2" x
2" squares were refired to round the edges.
