As some of you know, I made 8 hummingbird stained glass wallhangings out of my grandpa's clothes after he passed away. When I was looking for the pattern for that, I came across a stained glass eagle pattern, and my mom asked me if I would make one for her with my grandpa's clothes too. I said "of course", so it has taken me a while, but I finally got the eagle done. It is a lot bigger than the other ones so it was much more challenging to quilt.

Thanks everyone for your nice comments. I gave it to my mom last weekend (but didn't post the picture since she looks at this site and I wanted it to be a surprise) and she loved it. The quilt is 30" x 40" and I got the pattern from

Thanks again for looking.

Beautiful job. Isn't it very satisfying to take a pattern and make it your own. Using your Dad's clothing will make it truly unique forever.

Very nice. Love it as your Mom will too.
