CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

I was disipointed -
I was disipointed in this book, however I blaim myself for not reading who designed the designs of the illustrations.I was under the impression that the word original ment by F.L.W's originals. The illustrations are all very nice, however they lack color suggestions and any hint of where they may have been used.

Good resource book -
This is a good book for someone wanting to do period stained glass work for their house or for just doing stained glass.

Very good ilustrations of Praire Design examples -
The book is very useful for the ones who want start on the Praire Design stained glass technique very popular on Frank Lloyd Wright's praire houses.

Prairie Designs for Stained Glass Windows -
I am a fan of the Arts and Crafts Movement in the United States, as exemplified in Mission and Prairie designs. I used this book to assist me in designing tile and mosaic murals using themes from the Arts and Crafts period. With a little time, a copy machine, and some colored pencils, you can make some original designs for use in your own home or business.

Nice Designs But No Photos of Finished Projects -
This book has some very nice designs, but I was disappointed that there were no photographs of completed projects. I am not very familiar with the prairie style, so I would have liked getting some suggestion from the designer as to possible colors, textures, and layout. A few of the patterns have shading (10 out of 48) to suggest color layouts, but of course the design I wanted to make was not shaded (Murphy's Law I guess).
