Have You Heard of Stained Glass Quilting?
I discovered something new (for me anyway). It’s an interesting quiltmaking process called Stained Glass Quilting and mentioned at BCQuilters Weblog. You’ll also find here a brief description of the process as the quilters has been learning it in class.
She also shows us a few “in progress” photos of her work.
Fascinating!
If you’ve ever tried this type of quilting, what were your results? Do you have something on your blog about it?
(The book above may be of a different type of stained glass quilting than that on BCQulters. However, each is equally beautiful.)

Hello,
There are several techniques for stained-glass quilting. The method I am learning used freezer-paper.
If you are interested, I can write up how we did it on my blog.
Thanks for sharing on your website.

Hi, How do I get the 5-pointed star pattern?

Yes, I’ve done some, using the black bias “leading” you can buy. It’s expensive though.
I’ve done about five flower blocks of a 12 block quilt. It’s put away somewhere, I should dig it out.
