Using the Patterns
Even if you're not a crafter who likes working with stained glass, these patterns can provide inspiration for you in other crafts.
- You could take the patterns directly and use them as a kind of paint-by-number pattern to paint a similar design onto a canvas or as part of a craft project.
- Simple designs could be converted to quilt patterns very easily; just use the stained glass pattern as a pattern to cut out your fabric pieces.
- Similarly, you could use the lines of the pattern to make a mosaic (with tiles or even cut up paper).
- Trace the pattern onto a grid and convert it into a cross stitch pattern.
- If there are kids in your house, the patterns make wonderful coloring pages, and kids can make their own stained glass windows by cutting up little bits of construction paper, card stock, junk mail and wrapping paper and gluing them onto the pattern, making their own mosaic collages.
