I did this in "Gallery Glass" in 1983 - Gallery Glass is where you squeeze the 'leading' as latex stuff out of a bottle (tracing a pattern) onto clear glass, then you use eyedroppers to drop the 'stain' in the pools formed by the latex once it dries.  I have wanted to do this in actual stained glass ever since, so finally, I've done it!

This measures about 23.5 x 20

As Fair Time draws near, I wonder which pieces I'm going to enter this year.  I'm thinking my piece with the stonebridge over water with the pussy willows in the foreground would be a good candidate - also originaly done in Gallery Glass right after I completed the bouquet.  It would qualify as one of  my first projects...I hate to lose it for a month but I'd like to enter it.  I sure enjoy doing stained glass!
