Basically Yesterday Again

Today was much as yesterday was. I spent 3 or 4 hours doing stained glass and then managed to talk myself into sewing a binding down on the other of the boy's quilts.

I've been working the clear glass around the black rabbit and it's a challenge. This was maybe too ambitious a project for our first stained glass. =)

I probably spent an hour working the clear glass around the rabbit's foot. At least its rounded and do-able. I wanted to help Jeff with his turtle, but we've gotten stuck at the "beak." The pattern calls for a pointed cut, but that's not possible with our current technology. We may have to rework the pattern to make it something we can do with our current tools.

  1. They both look great so far. I would have never guessed this was your first project.

  2. I've finally talked myself into getting the Clownfish quilt done. I'm not really happy with the quilting this time, but it's because the top is warping from too many bias seams and big lumps where all the seams come together. I'd love to get my stained glass stuff out again. Maybe I should unwrap and hang my Viking Ship?

  3. Hanging the stained glass you've finished is a good thing.
