This is the first book I bought when I started learning this amazing craft. It has beautiful illustrations and pictures (in color), which really show some of the techniques better than you can describe them. It is short and to-the-point, but I did eventually buy a more detailed book. But this one remains the one that I check back with to answer quick questions! Definitely worth the money!

I am a beginner and I'm teaching myself. This book was very helpful in teaching me how to begin. It also has a lot of nice designs that I was not afraid to try. I found this book very helpful in getting started.

I am a stained glass artist. This is an excellent reference book. I have given this book to some of my students. Very informative, lots of color pictures, easy to read and understand. Also includes a number of patterns from beginner to more advanced. This book is No. 1, in my opinion, of all the instructional stained glass reference books I have owned.

A wonderful, simple to use booklet for the novice. Also a very good book for a refresher for those who have done stained glass projects before. A very nice inclusion of usable patterns, color choices, degree of difficulty for each project and the square footage of glass needed to complete the project. I would definitely recommend this to anyone considering a hobby in stained glass.

something I have always wanted to do. going to be doing much of this soon. soon we will be making stained glass to sell or give away
