    That is gorgeous. It looks like a stained glass window.

    It would be a shame to see these beautiful colors fade!! I love it!

    I did a French Braid quilt for a king size bed. Never even thought of taking one of those braids and doing anything else with them. That was really inspiring - wish I could think of stuff like that sometimes!!

    These are just beautiful. I agree with the suggestion that you back them with muslin to prevent fading from the sun.
