Here in the Marblehead House Library there are many books on decorating and specifically the Arts and Crafts Movement.  I copied this pattern for beautiful stained glass, added my own twist here and there, and added color.  
Visit Nadine for mare beautiful stained glass inspired art.

Dear Rachel,
delicious, your lightful stained glass! Gentle and lovely coloured.

And thank you very much for the interesting link... I like William Morris very much, means his work. There is a foreboding of Art Noveau, isn't it? And for example wallpapers are in Europe very trendy today!

I grasped into the history too... and its a rose.

Love,
Ariane.

I hope you'll frame that one. It's beautiful. The colours are fab.

oh, arts'n'crafts, hey? the more i hear about your marblehead, the more i'm losing i'm marbles over just really wanting to have a walk there, alongside you and the kidz, and babble, and chat. oh.
fragile drawing/painting, rachel. the colours are perfectly chosen.

i've seen similar designs in windows, here in our bigger cities perhaps, and in holland, and england. (and in william morris' home in london, e.g., of course.)
