8 St. Katharine Drexel Parish
These framed sketches are the result from your earlier vote. There were four specific items indicated that you, the parishioners, wanted to see in the window. They were: Simplify the border around the window. St. Katharine Drexel looking at the children. Both studios were given these directives and requested to submit one more sketch for your approval. Design #1: The border has been simplified; St. Katharine Drexel is looking at the children, her feet are not showing, and the Eucharist is represented at the top center of the window. You will notice three churches are shown at the bottom of the window, just above the grass line, which represents the merging of the parishes. The finished size is 4 foot by 8 foot, with a two foot arch at the top of the window. The black line on this design is a stabilizer bar and will not be visible when the window is completed. Design #2: In this window, St. Katharine Drexel is the focal point. The border is simplified, representing the “old” to blend with the other windows. The Eucharist is represented by a modern contemporary version, which represents the “new”. The churches in the background represent the merger. The three crucifixes on top of the churches represent Calvary and the crucifixion of Jesus. The finished size is 4 foot by 8 foot with an arch at the top. Both studios use a safety-laminated glass or an energy efficient window to protect the window from the elements. Only the best foreign and domestic hand-selected stained glass will be used. Where the colors appear to be opaque does not necessarily mean the color in the final window. These are sketches. The window itself will show more hand painted detail. As you study the sketches, look at the detail to help decide what you would want in your window. While something may appear too large or too small, remember this is a much smaller version of the window. We can “tweak” the sketch, but moving an item from one sketch and putting it in the other one is not an option. Both stained glass studios are very reputable and have been in business for many years. Having worked with both studios, either one would provide us with a beautiful window. The bid cost is approximately $125, but did not include the opening of the wall for the window placement. Remember, the final decision is YOURS. Voting will take place through May 27. Once the votes are in, the selected sketch will appear in church, and the result will appear in the bulletin. Voting ballots are in church and will be available through the weekend of May 27. St. Katharine Drexel’s feet are not showing from under her skirt. Representation of the Eucharistic.
