with stained glass you can get everything fused into place, put together your quilt sandwich and then stitch your leading...so your leading and your quilting are both done at the same time. then if you wanted to add some quilting to other areas it should be fairly easy to do. remember, if you have not quilted before you need to make a small practice piece and get the hang of what you are doing before jumping into your real project...everybody needs some practice in order to machine quilt
