Excellent idea! I also like seeing what others have done with the same
pattern. I know I've seen several of the dahlia quilts over the years and
always found them stunning. The pattern has been around for a long time, but

I've had my dalia book for a long time - I thought it was out of
print. It is a Dover book. I just looked at it. I've had it so long
that the price at the time was $1.95. Even at the price here, it's
quite a bargain:

I haven't looked through the book much yet, just enough to see the
templates, so I'm not sure what method is recommended. It is just such a
nice pattern.
