Nice book of patterns which can be useful for many artists and craftsmen. Birds are a nice subject for arts and crafts work. These patterns can be enlarged or reduced for your purpose. Gives one many ideas for making your own designs. Will be useful for years and is a great addition to my art library.

I just finished the duck design fetured in this book. I used stained glass paints and made it for a friend. He placed it in the window above the front door and now the whole neighborhood can enjoy this easy work of art. Add some art to your home.

Is a very good book! You could find right-angle and round patterns. The only thing I miss was the pictures with colours, but in general is good to start. There are basic and more complex patterns, for differents degree of difficulty.

This book was in excellent condition and delivered on time. The patterns were easy to follow and could be adjusted by the artist with a little imagination. Thank you.

Item was as shown, packaged properly and arrived promptly. I would purchase from this company again. Would recommend to others.

nice book lots of small details

Am a beginner in Stain Glass and this book has a lot of good projects that look like they would be fun to make.
