Gift Cross—An Introduction to Stained Glass
by Michael C. Thomas
A 4-1/6" x 7" simple, elegant free-form cross for beginning glass enthusiasts. The cross is fashioned from four pieces of glass made with simple, straight cuts. The cross can either be used as a wall hanging or set in an optional pyramid-shaped glass base. Suggestions are included for incorporating a cast Christ figure to complete the cross. A three-loop hanger is used to finish the top of the wall version. This project was constructed using the copper foil technique.
