" Quilts in the Tradition of Frank Lloyd Wright " by Jackie Robinson -- quilts based on F.L.W's art glass designs 1900-1925.
I think there are about 16 different stained glass windows depicted/ created in quilt form. I just looked up the one I made, the pattern in the book makes a 42" X 51" quilt. I redrafted it to make a king size quilt

Yes, as soon as my ordered backing arrives I will load it up & get quilting on it.... My hubby said last night (" that's going to take you Weeks to quilt! ") oh he of little faith.... I am looking forward to the quilting.
