The design


I did a charcoal rubbing of the window, then translated it to tracing paper. From there I laid the design on a chausible and made the changes necessary to effect the curve of the chausible. I used the "cartoon" of the window to trace the pieces onto fusible web. From there I put the fusible web on the dupioni silk and cut out the pieces that will make up the stained glass effect.

This doesn't look like much on the white background - but will look great on the wine red dupioni silk that we are using for the chausible.
