Butterflies - Nature's Stained Glass
We counted no less than 23 butterflies represented here, and well represented at that. You'll find the family, species, wingspan, habitat and natural colors of each butterfly, as well as two or three sizes of each and very specific suggestions of appropriate glass to use, from Armstrong to Youghiogheny. What you do with these butterflies is up to you -- instructions are included for attaching a finished butterfly to a suction cup and sticking it to your window, making a plant spike, or hanging it from a string.

Ensembles in Glass
The idea here is to create a compatible grouping, using a theme or a compatible design. For instance, the "Shell Ensemble" consists of a tray, napkin and candle holders. Each of them has one or more sea shells etched onto the glass parts. Four fold-out sections 22" x 34" make up into four distinctly separate ensembles.

Sun-Sculptures 1
This is a collection of eleven 3-dimensional glass "sculptures" using either flat glass or fused glass. Most of the projects are flat panels enhanced with 3-dimensional overlays. One of the projects is a panel lampshade. All of the projects include full-sized patterns. None of the projects are terribly difficult.

Simply Outside
Another interesting collection of patterns from that lovable madcap from the west, Suzanne Cooper. She has invented a whole series of stained glass things which can be used out of doors. Our favorite (and hers, we guess) are "twirlers", which are stained glass birds or things super-imposed onto 8" diameter brass rings and festooned with hanging ribbons. Hang them from a tree or porch beam, and they will rotate in the breeze and scare away evil spirits.

Holidays by Judy Miller
The 30 or more projects in this book are on fold-out sheets so that there is a wider size variety than found in some pattern books. Nativity figures abound, as do angels, hearts and flowers. One of the distinctive suggestions given is for the making of a custom stained glass frame to house a wedding invitation, and several interesting patterns are found therein. The several candy dish patterns include one for St. Valentine's Day.

Wings and Things
23 full sized patterns for windows, jewel boxes, wall cabinets, clocks, memo boards, lamps and sun catchers. All of the patterns are of animals which have either wings, or things. A cow memo board, for instance. (This particular cow is a very thoughtful beast, and will be sure to inspire you when you face it each morning in the kitchen and are transfixed by its baleful, pleading expression.)
