Search Quilting S tained G lass Q uilts and A pplique A "stained glass" quilt can be made in several different styles and techniques. While it is possible to piece a stained glass quilt (especially if the shapes in the quilt are straight-edged) the more common technique is to use applique. Designing your own stained glass quilt can start with actual photos of real windows or from many patterns available in books and on the Web for making real stained glass. The same patterns can be used for making quilts. There are quilt books specifically for making stained glass quilts, too. The dark lines around the shapes in the quilt replace the "leading" (actually strips of lead or copper) which are found in real stained glass.
Glass Painting Techniques - Petri Anderson was a revival of interest in the gothic arts and the majority of designers revertedto the medieval techniques of producing mosaic stained glass, leading off http://www.buildingconservation.com/articles/glasspaint/glasspaint.htm
Extractions: In medieval stained glass manufacture, the design was painted directly onto the coloured glass panes, adding monochrome detail to a coloured base. The colour of the paint itself was dependent on the amount and type of oxide used in its production, but was usually black or brown. Until the 14th century the paintwork seen on glass was predominantly applied by brush, with some further working with sticks, quills and stiff coarse brushes once the paint had dried. This is sometimes referred to as the smear technique, and it produced quite coarse results.
