| Butterfly Joy |
Here's
another scrappy project for you. I nearly couldn't shut the lid on
my box of 2 ½” squares, even though I used some a few weeks ago. This time I decided to stitch up this Flutterbye
pattern to make room.
Happy
flower colors of yellow, orange, lilac, and pink combine well with
sky blue, grassy green, and watery aqua. I used white, cream and
gray for the contrasting pieces.
There are two narrow borders, one in white
and the other in yellow with corner designs to match the block pattern.
What
a sweet summery little quilt! Butterfly Joy is 44” square. The
backing is a black and white friendship themed word print. I quilted
with white thread with leafy looking loops done in free motion.
I
still can't get over my amazing find of $1 per yard fabric. I know I
saved at least $3000 with that deal. Nearly every piece is
calling “pick me, pick me to make something now.” I don't
know how I managed to get all of it in my sewing room, either! The house may
be leaning slightly...
