You will have few designs to choose from for your stained glass project or I’m happy to guide you through your own idea you have seen and fell in love with.
There are many ways how you can create the look of stained glass when using fabric as your medium. We will be working with quite a simple method of using bondaweb to hold our “pieces of glass” down and then we will use specially made tape to create the effect of Stained glass.
