Free Stained Glass Patterns

These free stained glass patterns feature both windows and suncatchers. The windows can be constructed with either lead came or copper foil. The suncatchers, due to their size, are easiest to make with copper foil.

Using a pattern resizing software program such as Rapid Resizer gives you a quick way to enlarge the free stained glass patterns to whatever size you want or need. You can get it at Rapid Resizer for a 14 day trial version, free, before you purchase it (for a very modest fee). It is what I use and I'm extremely happy with it.

Another resizing program, that is free, is at GlassEye I have tried it but found it to be more difficult to use than Pattern Resizer. Of course, that is just my own opinion. I know many people that use it and like it. Try them both and see which one suits you best.

Use different textures of green glass for the tree tops.
The tree trunk is actually a brown streaky glass. Why my
coloring looks so red in the picture will remain a mystery!

You could choose your colors from the
five pansy suncatcher to make the flowers
bright, or from the window, just below, for
a more muted effect.









Pansy Window For another idea, you could incorporate
the 3 pansy suncatcher in a window.

The holly leaves are an overlay. Make them as a
separate piece, but just flat solder the leaves
on the back side so they will lay flat. Attach
them after the santa is soldered and cleaned.
Patina and polish, then attach the leaves, tack
soldering wherever they touch a solder line/seam.
Use a Q-tip to clean and re-patina where you
attached them.
