Native American Designs Stained Glass Pattern Book (Dover Stained Glass Instruction)

Stained glass workers in search of handsome, high-quality patterns will welcome this collection of designs based on traditional Native American themes from a wide variety of sources. Approximately 120 patterns, each identified and adapted from authentic tribal motifs, depict geometrical, floral, and animal designs. Here are striking decorations from Jicarilla Apache basketry, Hopi and Acoma pottery, a Haida shaman's rattle, mid-20th-century Mexican fabric, a Nez Percé woven bag, an Arapaho shield cover, a Navajo blanket, and much more. Shown in circular, rectangular, diamond-like, and other shapes, these dramatic, decorative elements can be incorporated in stained glass (and other craft) projects that will be treasured for years to come.
