    Looks like a project I did in a color class.

    Got an A.

    That looks like an A+.

    i hope so! this was the inspiration - just saw this the other day and immediately knew it was what i was going to do. its a really simple pattern if you understand quilting. just two sizes of "half square triangles" which are really fast to sew together. giving myself 3 weekends tops from start to finish

    thanks Cap! I think I did something similar in art class too

    That transition within complimentary hues is hard, but when done right it hits hard.

    Excited to see the final product.

    Getting closer. The camera doesn’t show the colors all that well. Look better in person. :)
    Need to finish soldering, patina and wax it. Been a long project :-/

    looks good to me! :notsure:
    i've kinda always wanted to try stained glass. i feel like it could be super addicting. and so many similarities between quilt block patterns and glass patterns i would have a blast trying to design things!

    my biggest issue right now is space. the ambition is there already. one day i will have a house that i can dedicate a whole floor to my hobbies with a quilting section, painting studio, a whole Lego display and building area and whatever else i decide to tinker with :laugh: right after I win the lottery....

    I was grabbing scrap glass at a stained glass studio I had previously taken a beginners class at and asked how people become artists because I was genuinely curious if you had to do an apprenticeship etc. They offered me a job. I took it for shits n giggles

    What's the handle made of? Looks like a rusty old car with peeling paint

    It’s called FatCarbon Carbon fiber. They shred carbon fiber and recast it with colors.

    I made myself a broom for Halloween (wife and I went as Harry and Hermione) and it's snowballed into me making custom broomsticks for some local friends and nerds. They take a while but man, they're fun to build!

    That is just too cool! Who'd have thought that would catch and you'd be asked to make some? Very nice work.

    don't lie to yourself! my neighbor built a 3 car, 2-story garage "so i've got plenty of space". now he's out of space. my garage is height-limited at 78". tacoma is 71" tall. all my mods are based around the garage height just for the challenge.

    there's never enough time, space, or money, for those of us with projects. it's why we need to make the best of those things that we've got!

    They all need a final buff and polish with ultra-fine polishing compound, but are looking fantastic.
