...the line drawing.The drawing has since been altered a bit, mainly because one or more of the participants in this project knows a little about human anatomy.

Rose Window Part One

I LOVE St. Stephen. Wow, little did I know I was in the presence of a bonafide artiste!! It's awesome.
I have all the colors cut and in place on the rose window pattern. Now to cut the white and then do all the taping
Here's the result of my efforts. I like the progression of the reds in the wedge shapes, but the green to blue doesn't go as smoothly. That bright green really seems to jump out. I may need to go online and find something a little softer. What do you think?

Here are the designs for the rose window and lower quilts as seen on my computer. The Corel Draw designs are saved as Encapsulated Postscript files (*.eps), sent by email to the printer in Longview, and then picked up as full size printouts.
Only half of the lower large quilt is shown as the printer as a width limit of 36" and the quilt is 6' wide. The rose window has been divided into 2 parts because I need the actual pattern to make templates for each individual piece.
Here are the templates made from the full size pattern printout. The fabric will be cut so the edges butt tightly under the bias tape leading. Some trimming and adjusting is needed as the full size pattern is not perfect (only God is!).

Glad you like ol' Steve. He started out looking like he had an Elvis sneer. Then he was too smiley and his eyes were kinda girly. He went to unshaven Mexican for a few minutes, then ended up as he is now. Keith says he looks like one of the Marx brothers, but since they were Jewish, I guess that's okay.
The window looks incredible!
Okay, about the shouting green. Did you try the back side? I can see where it's a little jarring. ***Is it jarring from 20 ft away and 16 ft up???******
Now I'm off to either cut hair or cut out a cloak (for Steve, of course).
