That would be a pretty to make, I would not have enough patience to make it - No idea what the pattern is. Please show pictures when you have it finished.

There's a company called Quilter's Treasure that makes stained glass quilts. They might have a pattern for what you are looking for. I believe their website is www.quilterstreasure.com.

your's is a much better picture, but I actually have the pattern and instructions, I was just wondering if anyone had made one, because I can't seem to find any pics of finished ones to compare to, you know? Usually when you have the pattern name and run a search, there are tons of pics of quilts done with that pattern that turn up but not this time :(
Thanks for the link, though, it's a much much better pic than the one I have on the paper :)

I've loved this pattern for quite a while, too. The fabric requirements are incredible, but it would be just gorgeous made up. I would likely use Moda marbles or another line that looks kinda like stained glass for it. It will be lovely when it's done. And yes, blondeslave, that is the right pattern.

Did anybody notice how many 7/8" strips of black had to be cut??? 137!!! I think that's a cutting job for several days! lol

Baren*eh*ked, let us know if you are going to start this project and if so, we want pictures! It's such a beauty, someone has to make it!

Yeah, but if you sew everything together and stip piece, it's not as bad as it looks. I had to re-read the section a couple of times to understand, because I didn't really feel like sewing 900 little black strips. You actually cut them into long strips and sew them to either side of your colours, and then cut in triangles... it's really hard to explain, though.

Yup, it is, I ran it off, directions are kinda hard to understand but there is a diagram. This is on my to-do list :lol:

Oh my! That is beautiful! The pattern is downloaded and on my list! I love the look of stained glass. I'm thinking this could look good in muted batiks. :-D

Like Mel says, I'd like to see pics of other versions too so Mel, get on and make one then show us! :mrgreen: :lol:
