    Amma, I know the black garden gate you mentioned for the Michael Miller panel. I found them on a website months ago before deciding to do attic windows, they are lovely but so very expensive to buy ready done. Please let me know how you get on with yours, I am not too good with fiddly things.

    Alex Anderson recently had a program on attic window quilts called Attic windows 3 ways . The half triangle was really easy.

    Very nice Patty, it has a wonderful under water effect, like looking through the glass at an aquarium :D

    Hi there, Can only go my what our Group as been doing and 2 or 3 have made the stained glass windows, they say they are easy and I must say the affect if amazing.

    Someone else tried out the attic window, made a small pincushion, super affect but she said that it was a bit fiddily, could have been the size that she was doing it in though.

    Cordelia those are amazing stained glass panels you did and that site I have earmarked for ME Elle
