Stained Glass Window Pattern



This pattern hangs on the wall of Keith's office. This drawing is full-sized for the planned window -- approximately four feet by five feet. The green lines are for supports -- special caming that will not interrupt the major lines of the window, Keith hopes. He's planning on doing some of the detail work with fusing glass together which requires a special kiln. Other detail may be accomplished through painting the glass. Currently he estimates that the window will have 1500-2000 separate pieces. He's looking into different types of glass this week, planning for the water, the sky, the flowers, the grapes, the leaves, etc. This window will really be a true work of art when it's finished!
