church window sunburst

  After making several small windows for our church (which had no stained glass) my husband & I tackled making a half circle stained glass for over the double door front entry.  It is an original design: 66" x 33". We used mostly Spectrum glass and used the copper foil method with 3 radiating steel rebar to support it.

  I'm submiting 3 photos: 1. work in progress,   2. installed window from inside,   3. Instlled window backlit; view from outside at night

  We've been working with stained glass for 7 years, taking classes and now teaching a few others, locally, the basics of copper foil.  Also we've taught  a group of 4-Her's how to make stepping stones for a project to take to the Fair.
