Was stained glass used in the Gothic time period?

Stain glass was made pretty much how it is made today. A pattern is made, the glass is cut on the pattern and then it is put together with lead. Of course the glass its self is made differently and the patterns used were all religious. A "glazier" made the glass and a "glass painter" drew the details and finished the window. Many times they were the same people. Glaziers worked closely with masons, carpenters, and smiths on various buildings and they were also used to maintain and repair Windows. One of the first structures to be redesigned in the Gothic style was Sanit-Denis, north of Paris and the Windows were added at this time as an important part of the life and faith of the community. Stain glass embodied the way people viewed their relationship to God. The theme of light appears over and over in The Bible, so light was connected to God and the light passing through the Windows was a visible reminder of the divine.
