I recently attended a local quilt show and was so impressed with the stained glass quilts. I would love to make one. Any suggestions on how to get started?

I will be looking for tips, too. Our church put in new stained glass windows and I want to make up a quilt using our window as an inspiration.

My friend has 18" of her intestines taken out & I found this pattern for us to work on while she recouperated. Little did I know that it would be weeks before she was up to it but we did wind up doing it & I loved it. This one was very simple.

I wanted to do one too, so I bought a pattern at a quilt show and used my own fabrics. I made my own black bias to make the lead on the glass. This is a picture of the one I did.
