For this collection, professional stained glass artist Connie Clough Eaton has created approximately 100 charming designs patterned after Victorian-era suncatchers. Ranging from a simple arrangement of fruit and a single tulip to magnificent butterflies and an elegant female figure, the boldly outlined patterns also portray delicate sprays of flowers, a dove, an owl, and other birds. Ideal for creating ornaments to decorate Christmas trees, for placing in bright windows and near lampshades, these light- catcher designs -- many outlined in rectangular, oval, and diamond-shaped frames -- can also be used to create unusual gifts that will be treasured for years to come ER -
