creating window panes for art quilt

[Rita C.]

I am new to quilting but not new to sewing. I recently joined our local quilt chapter. This year's challenge
was to make an art quilt. Well, I just jumped right in . I found a picture of a local Cajan Cabin that I want
to enter in our contest/challenge. I am stuck!!! Everything looks good, but I do not know how to make
a window pane with cutrains. Can someone help. The background for the inside is black with
curtain in corners.. Thanks for your help.Barbie

You could arrange one of the curtains in a downstairs room, then go out side with your camera and take some photographs. This will give you a picture of how it looks and something to work from to adapt for your quilt.

That is what I would do.
