Basic Stained Glass Class - copper foil method: This class best suits the needs of beginning stained glass enthusiasts, and those who want to refresh their stained glass skills while creating some new projects. Basic terminology and techniques will be introduced in the first session, along with stained glass scoring and grinding methods demonstration and practice. At each class session, the participant will have an opportunity to make a small project to take home. During the first three sessions, projects will be made from the same pattern while we complete our introduction and guided practice in pattern preparation, scoring, breaking, grinding, foiling, and soldering. Beginning with the fourth session, each participant will select a small pattern to make from a choice of five patterns provided by the instructor. Approximately four to six projects will be completed by participants by the end of the course, depending upon the pace of the participant. This class provides an opportunity for fun, fellowship, and creativity. Come and join the group!
