It is really gorgeous. Would you mind sharing which fabric you used for the "window pane" as it is so realistic!!! Thanks, Linda |

LOVE IT! I just ordered 4 panels so I can make one for each of the grandchildren's homes. Now if I can just find the wood grain fabric that's as perfect as yours. Did you just use one fabric? It looks like different tones, so thought perhaps you used different ones. Thanks for the inspiration

Oh, how cute!
|
Beautiful. I have a large Santa panel and I may just have to try this. Thanks for sharing!
|
This is indeed a super cool quilt!
|
I'm a Santa collector too :) Absolutely love, love, love this quilt!!!! I just may have to have that panel as well!
|
Well, it don't get any better than that. Awsome job on the windows.

Beautiful, the window looks so lifelike!!

WOW I love it.

It looks so real.

Fantastic job!!! Great use of the panel and great choice of the two different wood grain shades to get the 3-d feel. The bing on the tree will be the a great accent. Super -- Congratulations!!

Lovely quilt. Almost makes me wish for snow. Almost. Thanks for sharing. Georgette

great idea

It's wonderful. Your choice of wood colors are just perfect. Just enough difference in the shades to look so realistic. Great job.
|
Oh! I love this quilt! What a terrific Christmas.....and attic window.....quilt! Congratulations!
|
I would like a tutorial on this. It is so awesome! Would you share your pattern?
We have 2 little ladies that would love this in their home if I could figure it out. |
This is one of the best attic windows I've ever seen! The wood grain fabric really makes it look real. Great job!
|
Great job!
|
I have patterns to make the attic window, but it doesn't show how to do the 2 tone for the panes. Could you share the pattern you used? Thanks.

No "pattern" per se. After I cut the panel border off ,yes, there was a red frame/border on the original panel. Measure the piece. I just cut the panel in half-Vertically. I divided and cut the panel in thirds width -wise. 2 blocks. across, 3 blocks down. (Use your judgement for what you want to do with your large print fabric or panel.) I just use a dark strip for the vertical strip. Use a light strip for the horizontal. Assemble the attic window block. Add a thin strip of the dark fabric and sew it the length of the horizontal on the bottom of the finished block. On my project, Each focal print "window scene" block is approximately 12" tall, 10" wide. The window pane strips are 2 1/2" wide. The bottom thin strip is cut 1". Once all of your blocks are done, you assemble the "rows" vertically vs. the usual Horizontally. Top to bottom rows. Then sew the vertical rows together. I added a final 2 1/2" strip f the light fabric to the bottom of the project to give the illusion of a window sill. Frame your project as desired. As another post suggested, experiment with different strip widths of "panes" specific to the size of the focal print that becomes your view. See what appeals to your eye. I hope that these instructions make sense. IF I have time to make a tutorial with photos, I will post it in the tute section. Probably wont happen till the weekend tho. I will let you know . Sandy Another project using a large print. Not a panel. 24" repeat. http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...w-t207503.html |
That's a wonderful "view".......great job!!
|
Use those pre printed blocks up! Another project.
http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...s-t207659.html Enjoy! Sandy |
What a great idea. I love your Santa quilt.
