NEWEST BOOKS

MOSAICS UNLIMITED (#12153) by Christine Stewart takes mosaics to the next level. In addition to some fairly traditional mosaic methods, Chris introduces us to HOT Mosaics - a combination of kiln worked glass and regular mosaics. Hot Mosaics add dimension and color to your finished piece. Plus there is a section on making mosaics from your photographs - very handy.

PRAIRIE STYLE PANELS (#14791) by Scott Haebich. This is a great pattern book as it gives you 11 different prairie themes. Then for each theme, you get four variations to make a well coordinated set of panels for different sized openings.  You get a tall and narrow (12x24"), long and narrow (30x8"), short rectangle (7x9") and square (12x12") scaled patterns that allow you to pick the best pattern for your application. And like all books that Scott has published, the patterns are neat, clean and very professionally presented. 

$14.95

STRAIGHT AND SIMPLE (#1309) by Jan Schrader features panels, suncatchers, mirrors and fused projects that do it all with straight lines. Now's a good time to get out your Morton Portable Glass Shop. Jan has three pages of illustrated instructions for making these patterns with your Morton tools.

$17.95

ENGLISH LEAD LIGHTS I (#14090) by Vincent Dimas is filled with patterns of traditional English "lead lights" or what the Brits would call a stained glass window.  I've always been partial to this style of design. Looks like something you'd find in a quaint little cottage.  These make wonderful windows for either side of your fireplace or they are easily adapted to cabinet doors.  Elegant and tasteful.  Over two dozen patterns here.

$11.95

CREATE A BLESSING (#14091) Sonny and Jinger Glasgow, published by Aanraku Glass Studios. This pattern book features simple Christian designs for the largest cathedral, or your smallest local congregation.

Check the patterns on the front cover, at left.  The patterns consist of round medallions (the four corners) that can stand alone or can be inserted into a background (the large rectangle in the center). The book features 15 medallion centers plus 12 background patterns. All are illustrated in full color.

$11.95

HANGING AROUND (#11612) from Marick Studios has 15 striking projects using bevels, jewels and, most imaginatively, antique plates and jewels. Patterns are full size and will make a round panel, sizes range from 12 to 16" in diameter.. 

Mari used circles cut from the bottoms of old antique glass plates that you could find at a flea market. The blue and purple piece in the upper right corner of the book cover used just that! .

$13.95

CUTE AND CUDDLY (#11613) by Marick Studios has 20+ suncatcher patterns of cut animals and birds, cats and dogs. This is a great pattern book for someone just getting started in glass as most patterns are easy to cut and don't have 58 pieces to cut and foil.
