All the quilts from The Quilt Ladies Books, I designed, made, wrote story, instructions and patterns, quilted and use. This is from Book One Mary Alice & Emily Brown. I needed to change things around and I didn't want to spend any money, so, I unpacked some tubs.

Quilts Pattern used in Stain Glass Windows

Pin It
 Thank you all for asking about the stain glass.  These are on the windows in our
family room/guest room. I did three of them.

Window One

I've taken stain glass classes and I love the idea of it, but the doing the whole hot thing, is not for me. I designed the patterns, cut the glass, and on purchased frames I laid out the pieces, glued them all down (glass glue) and grouted them with gray grout.

Window Three

Each frame measures 32' x 32' and they are very heavy.
They are hung with screws through the frame, so they can't fall.

The natural light comes through them all day and all are on the same light switch for night, making them glow.
