Described herein is a method for producing a quartz glass crucible, including the steps of: preparing a crucible base material that is made of quartz glass and has a crucible shape; producing a synthetic quartz glass material by the direct process or the soot process; processing the synthetic quartz glass material into a crucible shape without pulverizing the synthetic quartz glass material; and welding the synthetic quartz glass material processed into the crucible shape to the inner surface of the crucible base material. As a result, there are provided a quartz glass crucible that avoids generation of dislocation in a silicon single crystal, the generation of dislocation caused by the crucible itself, at the time of production of a silicon single crystal and has high heat resistance, a method for producing the quartz glass crucible, and a method for producing a silicon single crystal, the method using such a quartz glass crucible.
