But where to I start? Can anyone point me in the right direction. I checked out Jo-Ann's web site and they have a few light boxes. Are they all created equal? What should I be looking for? I haven't a clue how to go about it. I don't even know what features to look for because I don't know what features they have.

Here's a link to the quilt I want to make if you'd like to see it.

I made one using a sheet of Plexiglas, sit it on top of a vegetable can in each corner and put a string of while Christmas tree lights underneath. Works fine for me.
