Wow I love it! Did you have a specific pattern for it? I love the celtic design hearts in the corner and the dragonflies too. You did an awesome job!

the center design of the quilt is (Another by Anita) design from Anita Bradshaw
here is a link to her website:
www.AnotherByAnita.com
she has lots of wonderful stained glass patterns-
the rest of the quilt i made up.
the hearts where quite a challenge---i drew one onto copy paper- & when i had it how i thought it would 'work' i sent it to work with my hubby asking him to blow it up to be about 1/2" wide between the lines- he got it about perfect! the dragonflies are about 6" across.
it took me most of a day to figure out how to make the corners line up- work- once i created the heart corners with (homemade) fusable bias strips--it was a challenge & had it's frustrating -just walk away- moments---but when i finally figured out how to add the 1/4" wide stripes around the borders & line up with the heart lines- it all came together- i almost didn't add the dragonflies- was originally going to just use them as a quilting design---but then thought there was just too much empty space & when i cut one out & laid it on the quilt top i liked it so went ahead and made 3 more.
