Theodora Salusbury
Theodora Salusbury (1875–1956) was an artist and craftswoman in the Arts & Crafts style. After training with some of the best artists in the field, she worked as a stained glass artist at her studios in Cornwall and London. Salusbury's windows would be leaded up by Lowndes & Drury. Dating mostly from between the two World Wars, the windows were destined for nearly thirty churches in England and Wales, several of them in Leicestershire, Salusbury's home county.

gollark: To evenly heat the toast, you could maybe soak it in water and use a toast microwave.
