We do not suggest starting with custom patterns for your first project. Your first project will always be your worst project! If you’ve already completed a project, working with us to create a custom pattern is a great way to expand your knowledge and experience the process of going from design inspiration to a stained glass pattern. We charge a drawing fee to help cover the time and materials involved in sketching, refining, and printing the design. The number of pieces, complexity and number of sessions to complete the project determine the price of a custom pattern class. If you’d like to stay within a specific budget, please let us know, and we can help to design with that in mind. With an equivalent size and complexity, most custom patterns fall within the level 2 or 3 price range. Large and more complex projects will be more expensive and time-consuming. To signup with a custom pattern, you can select the event and choose the option for a “custom pattern” send us an email, or give us a call with your ideas! We will reach out before class if we haven’t heard from you.
