i've made them in boro and don't know if it's the same for soft glass. don't see why not. i'm not good at explaining but here goes. gather the glass into ball and press on marver till about 1/2 the size. close to the middle draw a letter c with white stringer and heat it up till it moves but not flat. poke with pick approximately in the middle of the c to give the point of the lily once it's imploded. draw another c just on the outside of the white one with green for the leaf. then do the technique of imploding. hope this helps. works for me.

I've noticed that sometimes when I poke a dot at an angle and encase it, it looks almost exactly like at Calla Lily! Experiment, have fun, good luck!
