    Default Bay Attic Window

    This is my first attempt at Attic Windows. The two smaller ones were easy enough because I followed Jenny Doans tutorial. The bay one was more of a challenge because of the angles on the outer columns Had to do "Y" seams.My inspiration was" pathway through my garden"by Ellen B.Because it was my first attempt I was too scared to cut up a panel.I would now like to do another one but would like some advise. I made my panes narrower. Do they need to be wider?. Also, does the light fabric look better on the bottom or on the side? I made many mistakes doing this on and any advise and comments would be very welcome.

    Wonderful quilts. I really like the panels done this way and yours are so beautiful. I also like your bay window design and I can see why it would be a challenge. Yours is so nicely done. Enjoy them.

    All are very nice but especially like the 3rd one. You did a beautiful job on all three.

    I'm impressed!! Attic window quilt is still on my bucket list, and I've been quilting a while now. You've met the challenge and done quite well x3!
