Book excerpt: Stained glass artists use butterflies, birds, and flowers as motifs because of the beauty, vivid color, and texture these subjects bring to their work. In this collection of exquisite patterns, stained glass designer Connie Clough Eaton has put her aesthetic spotlight on these three motifs. Included are full-page designs of lush baskets, vases, and garden flower bouquets, as well as butterflies and birds, set amongst floral sprays and in various bucolic settings. Masterfully rendered for stained glass work, the beautiful graphics in this rich collection are also suitable for use in a myriad of other arts and crafts projects.
