Venetian Gothic Leaded Glass - Craft Fabric

The eleventh design of the Venetian Gothic quilt fabric collection is a view out a clear glass window to the cortile - or inner courtyard. The Venetians developed a unique clear glass during the Renaissance era.

The challenge of illustrating glass - especially clear glass - is “see” something that is clear & invisible. I put some translucent white on the glass. Making the courtyard background lighter. The other challenge of illustrating glass - what to see through (or beyond it). Here I used the court art panel (the last design in this collection).

Old Clear Glass design with coordinating fabrics. The Venetian Gothic quilt fabric collections features designs inspired by 16th century Gothic architecture in Venice. Available at my Spoonflower shop on cotton quilting fabric at 18 inch repeat, and on wallpaper at 24 inch repeat, which is perfect for dollhouses at 1:12 scale.
