Paned Expressions Studios - stained glass pattern designers since 1978
Crafting Light Into Art Since 1978 - stained glass design company and Pattern Publisher, Maryland
Paned Expressions Studios is a family-run stained glass design company, atelier, and pattern publisher based in Edgewood, Maryland. Since 1978 we've been sketching, cutting, etching, and firing glass to capture everything from wild irises and soaring hummingbirds to sleek geometric skylights. Along the way we've built one of the web's largest libraries of downloadable stained glass patterns, empowering thousands of professional stained glass artists, quilters, wood-inlay makers, mosaicists, laser-cutting pros, and hobbyists worldwide.
Whether you're shopping for an instant PDF, stocking up on our 23-disc stained glass pattern CD collection, or requesting a custom stained glass pattern, the same philosophy guides every piece: never let technical constraints compromise the design.
A stained glass pattern library for Every Craft
Our line art isn't just for lead came. Makers use Paned Expressions printable stained glass patterns to piece quilt blocks, laser-cut wood inlays and acrylic panels, design mosaic murals and glass-fusing projects, plot embroidery and card-making templates, and program CNC routers. If your software can open a PDF, JPG, or SVG file, you can craft with our patterns.
Our Studio Philosophy - professional stained glass design studio
We believe stained glass is "painting with light." Every sheet is chosen like a pigment, layered, fired, and acid-etched to capture shade, depth, and motion that flat artwork cannot match. Technical shortcuts never dictate our designs. The image comes first, the craftsmanship follows.
That is the standard behind every pattern in our stained glass pattern library and every custom stained glass art commission we take on.
