Sometimes we're not the swiftest I realize. Forgot to mention that the latest issue of the great (and free) Stained Glass News is now in. This issue's free pattern is a bit of a step up from the extremely lame one that came in the last issue. They have been duly advised. We have inside knowledge that an even better one is future pending...
In SGN #99, you'll find:
• new items, including: some new books, supplies for an exciting new fusing technique, a new bead mold, new System 96 and FX90 items, new tools for stained glass, and some new accessories for your fused glass projects.
• reader hints, a reader's workshop and more on "The Readers' Page"
• Today's Yard Art Jacqui Bush—New columnist, Jacqui Bush, has been making beautiful yard art with her students, and shares inspiration for this fun idea with readers.
•Glass Tapestry David Alcala—Another new columnist, David Alcala, has been the talk of the town… glass fusing town, that is. David shares a little about how his unique techniques came about, introduces his new products and upcoming book, and prepares to lead us on this exciting new journey in glass fusion.
• Stained Glass 101 Matthew McMillan—In this continuing series, Matthew talks about how to get the dimensions of the custom installation onto paper, things to think about during fabrication, and offers tips on how to turn a large panel safely.
• You Can Make It Linda "Scotti" Scott—Linda shows how to use leftover scraps of latticino, moretti and other bits and pieces to create beautiful jewelry.

And don't forget the awesome Tools for Doing Stained Glass that Fantasy In Glass does not sell at http://www.cuttersmate.com All made in the USA and featured in Stained Glass News. I know they won't post this.
Looks interesting...how do I get that newsletter? I thought it might be electronic, but clicking on it just makes it bigger. Doesn't seem to be a page turn function.
You've got to understand: I'm from Texas. I have an excuse for being behind the curve...
Hey Texas,
SGN, while free to our customers, is not free to us. We buy copies to distribute to our customers for their benefit, but also to generate in-store traffic . SGN is only available to you by actually walking into and supporting your local supplier,
