In this video, we are designing a pattern for stained glass. I show you how I take my sketch and turn it into a pattern. I talk a bit about things to keep in mind when creating your design. I show you how to use foil shears and give you some tips on how to make it easier to use them. Then, I show you how I transfer the pattern to the glass. This is Part 1 of the "Daisies Suncatcher Project."
In Part 2 - I will continue with more information about pattern layout on glass and how to cut glass. Video to be posted soon. Keep watch for it!
