Now I am convinced I am going to do every window in the house. My grand kids have helped me make a list of things we want to make. Next is a horse.
My work is still pretty primitive, but is so much fun.
I am still quilting too- lol

Beautiful !!! Where were you in mid ninties when I wanted one made. Wanted a hummingbird on a branch /flower.
A friend did stained glass but had never seen a humming bird so proportions were not right. Wanted the outer frame
to just sit inside the window frame so I could take it when we moved. Didn't happen so now I don't have it.

When I worked in electronics, I could do beautiful solder joints......when I took a stained glass course, my solder joints were less than desirable! Your work is more like God-given talent. Great job!
