Erin Crosby Meticulously Restores Stained-Glass Windows at WWU’s Wilson Library

A big table rests at the center of the studio holding two 100-year-old pointed windows taken from Western Washington University’s Wilson Library. They’re both pulled apart in various stages of repair. Crosby was commissioned to fix all of the library’s old panes.

“The windows were broken in multiple places,” he says. “Every window had at least one panel that needed fixing; I’ve been repairing them for a couple of months. This is 100 years’ worth of damage.”
