I'd even do it with a Steam-A-Seam lite sheet - and a larger piece of black(?) fabric, and then carve off the 1/8" cuts that are needed.
The method I'm using: I'll have a white piece of fabric that my design is on, put down the colored pieces (the "glass"), and then put pieces of bias tape (the "leading") in between the colored pieces.
And that method would work SO much easier in the way that MTS described. Fuse the web to the black BEFORE you cut it to the thickness you want for your lead. Don't know why you'd have to move the leading around any, but tack fusing moves easily and then press when you're ready. Easy as pie. It's dry, it stays put, it's neat. Any other adhesive is going to leave fuzzy edges and glop, especially with the huge amount of leading in this project and the narrow width you have chosen to work with. My
