Great Book June 14, 2008
Excellent layout and binding that allows you to leave it open to the page your following. Easy to follow instruction and pics for the visual learner. Love it and looking forward to the projects!
 Excellent Beginner Book May 28, 2008
Very detailed and organized. I am glad I bought the book. As a beginner in stained glass this met my needs.
Just What I needed February 18, 2008

The title says it all. I went from never having worked with stained glass to completing the first two projects in the book - and it was fun! Now, I'm working on my first original stained glass design. This book is great for anyone new to stained glass - the step by step instructions would probably be excrutiatingly slow to someone who already has a lot of experience, but they were exactly what I needed to get started! I also really liked the explanation of all the most common tools and equipment.
Good Fast Read December 15, 2007
Quick, easy and lots of pictures. Binding allows all the pages to turn easily, preventing the pages from 'closing' up on you while you try to follow the instructions.
A very great reference November 13, 2007
I have been checking out many of the books that are available and this one gives the best directions and it has made my first project half way easy.
