A couple of weeks ago, my Wonderful Wifey asked if I could make a stained glass panel for the quilt club auction. The quilt pattern is a Lemoyne Star and the panel is 12"x12". She picked out the glass from my stash and I only had to buy one piece to complete the color palate. Foil method with 60/40 solder, zinc frame. I also made a quick stand so the panel could be displayed in front of a light box at the auction.
The auction was last night and the piece brought $80 for the club.
A bonus for me was to get my glass bench cleaned off as well as my glass cutting table usable again. It had boxes of pen supplies stacked on it.:rolleyes:

Very nice and congrats on bringing a nice bid for the club. My older brother used to make those many years ago. Seeing yours took me back for a moment when I used to stare at every new one he made. I loved them but never got into making them myself. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Jay! I'm glad this brought back a good memory for you.
