then my daughter saw the center block of her quilt in a magazine and just happens the lqs was offering a stained glass class, you could use any pattern you wanted so i bought the dragonfly pattern and signed up for the class. after completing the block i put it aside to learn more about quilting so i could turn it into a king size quilt. about 6 months later, the wedding date was moved up and i had to get busy to make that block into a quilt, and the rest is history...i've been pumping them out in droves :thumbup:
