Each project is shown in full color, including step-by-step how-to color photography, and all necessary patterns and templates.

About this title

Review:

A nice primer for the stained glass novice, this guide keeps most of the designs simple and the colors bright. An introductory section covers the basics; 16 well-demonstrated step-by-step projects (with patterns included) include frames, panels, candle cubes, light catchers, and pendants. Photo galleries of other items by the author and contributing artists offer yet more ideas. --Amy Handy
