How to use the heart pattern
- Press Open the Heart pattern in the tool. The pattern loads with every closed shape as one glass piece.
- Pick a color, a glass type and a texture, then paint each piece. Try a few color schemes before you choose real glass.
- Choose a lead line finish: black patina, copper patina, brass or none.
- Set the finished size in inches or centimeters and check it against your paper size. See how to resize a pattern.
- Check the cut list for the number of pieces and the estimated glass area, with 15% added for waste.
- Print the pieces at actual size, or export a PDF. See how to print pattern pieces.
Tips before you cut
- Few, large pieces. A pattern with few pieces is easier to cut, grind and assemble, so it suits a first project.
- Check the smallest piece. Many makers avoid pieces smaller than about 1/2 inch (12 mm) across. Turn on piece numbers and look at the smallest ones after you resize.
- Test real glass. The textures in the tool are a preview. Look at a sample of the glass before you buy.
- Add your own allowance. The lead lines are a preview, so compare them with the real came or foil width for your project.
