Stained Glass Ornament Star - Free Pattern

For weeks and weeks I was searching for the *perfect* Christmas tree ornament to make for my friends and family that I could make in quantity and still be super cute. I've done this for years and years at least 30...that's how many I've been a grown up and had tons of people that I wanted to know I was thinking about them at this time of year and all the rest of the year, too. Ooooh and I so wanted it to come from my brain and heart, so here you go a tiny piece of love and light for your Christmas pleasure. ~Pam
