    i thinks it's a cutwork technique, not stained glass, but beautiful nonetheless.

    Check out that Fusible Stained Glass Portrait post on this site..she had a second post that explained it a bit more.
    I just enlarged the pic, in grayscale,mirror printed it. The hardest part for me was deciding where & how to cut!
    I cut one pic & layed it on black cloth...when I did the second pic..I changed some of the original paper cuts.The eyes were tuff also! Her pic was taken by her photographer Mom, so I wanted to put that lace in..so I ct that to fit & fused it on top. Trial & error!!
