    WOW! You are energetic! lol Is this two quilts? Will you put them on a bypass rod so one will slide over the other if you want to use the door?

    It is beautiful and does look like stained glass. I think I would be keeping them there year round

    sewlo, I love them. Talk about looking like stain glass, these do. Are all your strips the same size? I have never like these type of blocks because the distraction in the center because all the strips do match, but yours is different. It must be because you have added the black sashing between each block. I have all kinds of small strip, I am going to use this technique for make quilts for a large picture window.
    Did you quilt them and how did you hange them?

    It also good for the summer for the east, west and south side to keep the sun from warming up the house.

    Beautiful way to keep warm and show off lovely quilts at the same time.

    Now that is a clever idea! Very beautiful strip quilts, and a very practical use.
