I know! These two quilts were for my niece. She is very picky and tactless. I had made her a baby quilt when she was a baby and she had given it back to me saying that she doesn't need it anymore because she is not a baby.

When I had shown the dragonfly quilt to my BOM club ladies everybody went balistic. It was a hard quilt for me to make at the time. I did not like it but after everybody gushed at it I finally did see its beauty. At least three of the ladies bought the pattern after the LQS owner ordered them in. I thought it was so funny. With my quilt, I was able to help the pattern's owner make more sales. The pattern is called "Dance of the Dragonflies" by Annette Ornelas. I think you can look at it on her website at www.southwindquilts.com.
I just looked and it is in there at that website. I forgot to mention that it would be under wallhangings. I saw it listed under page 3. It was a pretty old pattern. I made it several years ago. The quilt is only 51" X 51". I wanted it to be closer to a twin size. I had to adapt the ribbon border to fit my quilt size. That took awhile and several extra ribbon blocks later.
