A flat panel design that I found on the internet as an image of a front door window. I scaled it to fit my project size (7″ x 14″). Made a smaller version first but it fell when the sucker disc let go, and cracked. I wasn’t that crazy about the sky selection anyway so it breaking was a good excuse to try again, only a bit bigger this time.
Both of them are shown here. The water ripples were very tricky to cut out as they are all cut from the same sheet of glass to capture the flow of colors in the glass.
