Cheshire cat to Stained glass
#1
Over Christmas I posted the Cheshire cat. These two pictures are what I was working on. The first is while I was waiting for more fabric from Burkholder's in Penn (great service to Canada)and the second is the finished top. Haven't got a clue where I 'm going to put this after the stonework is quilted in; its going to finish Kingsize. I'm thinking it will take abouta month. In the meantime I dream about it.

Blame my husband AGAIN. He challenges me to do these things. We have a stairwell where I hang some of my quilts and he often said that the french braid I have hanging there glows like stained galss. After we had been to Europe and saw the windows there, he started talking about a cathedral window. I quickly discovered he didn't mean that quilt pattern. So I found this one on the internet from the Milan cathedral and decided to try that one. It took about a month to redraw it and draft. I blame the size on the fact the smallest circle is the same size as my smallest pot lid. Sigh. Had I know it would grow like Topsy.
So I've been mulling this over and actually started mid Sept and I expect it will take at least a month on my long arm to quilt it, I work part time.
Wish me luck. Its gone from nightmare to delight many, many times. Our guild show isn't until next. It may be done by then. :roll: :roll:
