My DH is looking for information on stained glass and a forum/blog that may be out there like we have this quiling forum. Does anyone know of one?
His doc told him he needed a hobby and the options are a motorcycle or pursuing his interest in doing stained glass work.
(We can't afford the motorcycle right now- otherwise we'd have one)

Stained glass is fun - I used to do it a long time ago. Try Yahoo groups - I am sure there will be some there.

You might check your local PBS stations for "Glass With Vicki Payne," her show has a lot of tips and trick working with stained glass.

Years ago I had a small stained glass shop in Indiana, it was so much fun making all the things, along with my friend we did a lot of art fairs. You might check out

Awesome website!

At the Texas Renaissance Festival in Plantersville in October & November I work for a lady that does stained glass and has been teaching it for 30 years. Hope to get to take one of her classes after I retire.

I, too, do stained glass.......in my spare time!!! But I have to tell you ---- you may find it would have been cheaper to let him get the bike!!! ROL!!!! Buying glass is a LOT like buying fabrics!!!

Wow, too bad you're so far from Colorado, we're going to be selling all our stained glass when we work our way down to it in the storage unit for our (hopefully) soon move. Keep checking craigslist (if you want to search more than one city at a time, go to www.craigspal.com and download the free reader - it rocks! Good luck, stained glass is FUN!
