Finally figured out what I'm going to do with my stack of 10" squares from the echino swap- giant Hexies! Using the half hexagon template from MSQC. Going to be some happy cutting later! :)
These are for Celeste in the Always Bee Learning Bee. They are left as half hexagons for ease of assembly.

My first attempt at a flagstone! Came out alright. Made out of sugar paper with baby oil on to make it more translucent.
A swift color change happened in this one...

I've joined the "Piece and Love Hexathon" group (also on Flickr) to try my hand at English Paper Piecing. I also wanted a hand piecing project for the summer when it's too hot for knitting woolie stuff. Details about this project are on my blog: stitchcat studio : stitchcatstudio.blogspot.ca/2012/05/basting-is-done.html

Instructions in Eric's famous book
Internal note-
The leaf pattern of the lancets was altered to fit a mistake in the window frames.
The huge steel frames were supposed to be built after the glass was designed, but one day on the site we found them laying off to the side, already built to a standard window specification.
The image in this photo has been squeezed down in Photoshop to show how the leaf pattern was supposed to look. The leaves here are the same length all around and fall into a circle, as do the leaves in the facade.
As fabricated, they fall into a vertical oval that was stretched by others to accommodate the error by the builders.
- [ continue on the fact that the window frames were welded with arbitrary horizontal window dividers before the stained glass was designed. I wanted them to remove them and put in horizontals that fit the design. Instead, only the spaces for the major medalions were changed. The rest of the horizontals were left in place and the design of the leaf pattern was stretched to fit. This struck me as chintzy- but typical, that saving money on welding time would outweigh the design of the glass.
Compare to the existing window:

Flickr note-
If you want to see alot of my finished work, it does not work to just type don art (without quotation marks) into the Search window. You get too many extra pages, that way.
But, "don art" (with the quotes) does work.
