Gorgeous! I love the pics! How sweet to do this together!
Oh I've always loved stained glass and both of those look lovely.

How cool to take a creative class together. Both of your pieces are gorgeous.
How lovely, Deb! What a fun new adventure. I know that "in the zone" feeling well. Isn't it great?!
Wow - I love that! You should make quilt blocks in stained glass. I used to have one, but it broke during a move. It was so pretty hanging in the sunlight...
