the center dragonfly block was a pattern (i will have to look up at home) i took a class at the lqs for that one when my daughter found it in a magazine and wanted it sooo bad...after the class i put it aside and went about learing how to make a quilt so i could turn it into a king size quilt. when her fiancee received orders for his deployment the wedding date was moved up and i had to get busy and turn the block into a quilt...that is just what i came up with not really knowing what i was doing. the only problem with the quilt is i did not know how to get it to stop growing (it is 12 feet x 14 feet) but i finally did get it to stop. ;) finally years later i am much better at keeping them within reasonable size limits :)
