I love the assymetrical arrangement of the panes, Susan, the window looks like a lot of little pictures framed and put together! Wonderful eye to see the possibilities in this neglected window! #396633

Susie Peek-Swint February 26, 2004

Good Morning Phil, Shirley, and Carol -- thanks so much for your comments, always appreciated!
Carol, it was the assymetrical pattern of the frames that attracted me to this old window, after looking at so many beautiful stained-glass windows there was something 'special' about this little one -- especially the light managing to shine through despite it's neglected state :)
Cheers, Susie #396794
