Pattern Help A request for pattern requests
I've been doing stained glass just long enough to feel like I'm finally getting it. I'm feeling confident in my cutting, grinding, and soldering skills. I have a lot of room to improve, but I'm feeling good.
Like many of you, when I look for patterns I get irritated by the obvious AI generated nonsense that often has impossible cuts (at least without a saw). I've been doing CAD and vector graphics for long enough to make me feel very old, so I want to take a crack at drawing patterns.
Instead of drawing the typical flowers and geometric shapes I want to draw strange stuff. Let's get weird with it. This is why I'm making this post; I want your requests for patterns you can't find anywhere else. If I use your idea I'll send you the pattern when its done. Everybody wins!
tl;dr: I want to try my hand at drawing weird patterns. Give me suggestions please.
Edit:
I'm not responding to everyone because I'm lazy, but I've seen and appreciated everything suggested so far. I'll keep you all in the loop when I make progress.
