Sneak Peek

I'm working on a king sized Frank Lloyd Wright stained glass window quilt ( the tree of life window) this so far has caused me fits! Constructing it in 3sections, top, center & bottom, I've about worn out my seam ripper. Griped, complained, pouted.... Then all of a sudden, today it all started to come together... Yea! Here is a peek at the top section. 😆

now that is fabulous; i have contemplated that design, but that's as far as i got...very pretty colors! can't wait to see more!
|
That is way out of my experience level. I really admire it. Beautiful quilt.
|
WOW, that is stunning. Guess you are putting your own twist on his design. Gorgeous!!
|
Anxious to see when finished!!
|
Your color selecting is outstanding.
|
That is already stunning. I love the look of these.

No wonder you were having fits. It is absolutely going to be gorgeous. I already love it. You are so good!
|
Oh Wow! Can't wait to see more of it! You are brave...
|
CK that is awesome!!! Maybe I will get to see you this summer.
|
beautiful work so far I bet you're glad you did some ripping.
it's well worth it. |
That is really pretty!
|
I have made a Frank Lloyd Wright quilt and they are hard to keep all the lines straight and the same size!! That is a beautiful FLW!!!!!
|
It's beautiful! Are the thin black lines pieced or appliquéd bias tape?

My DH bought me a book of designs adapted from Frank LLoyd Wright's stained glass but I have never been brave enough to try one. Yours is beautiful! I can hardly wait to see the finished product.
|
That is one beautiful top, you are doing an amazing work of art. Thanks for sharing this beauty with us. Mary.
|
That is so beautiful!
|
It is coming along beautifully. Wish I had the ability to do one.
|
Beautiful, can't wait to see it finished.
|
Gorgeous! !! I hope my tree of life isn't as difficult! Beautiful

I have (3) strips to add that are 103" long-- Ugh! Going to be using a Lot of pins! I will be happy to have this top finished ( hoping today) I am really looking forward to quilting this one. 😆

Beautiful! Love the colors and design! Can't wait to see it finished!
|
CK that is amazing. Good job.
|
Oh, my what a beauty!
|
I've learned a lot along this journey... Too late now ways I could have done parts which would have been much easier.... But its all about the journey/process and it is now coming all together. Yea!
As soon as I finish my cup of coffee I will go in and finish. We are traveling this weekend, Detroit for a tiger's game and our room has a king bed so, I'm going to take it with me so I can see how it looks/fits the king- that's the next big ( oh I hope I planned this right). I will try to get pics too - it is hard to get good pics of a king when its snowing/sleeting outside. I should be able to show /share the completed top Sunday then I just have to wait for the ordered backing to arrive. I am excited to quilt it. :) |
Wow, have been looking at the pattern but just too much for me. Yours is gorgeous!
|
Outstanding!! Oh my gosh it's just outstanding beautifully!
|
So far - so good. Can't wait to see it completed.
|
WOW, just WOW!!
Can't wait to see how you are going to quilt it. Is it for you or a gift...if a gift FABULOUS!! |
Gorgeous!! Cannot wait to see the whole thing if that is just the top!

Beautiful! I had the same idea of using a stained glass Frank Lloyd Wright window too! If I get brave, I will remember you are now the "expert" lol!
|
It's beautiful and I think worth the aggravation. I've had quilts like that - I'm tempted to toss in the towel, but stick to it and wind up loving the quilt as it all comes together.
|
looks great !!!
|
It is stunning! This is just the top part? My gosh it will be huge and gorgeous! I remember when you were on the search for the pattern.
|
Beautiful quilt.
