    Stunning applique work! It's gorgeous! Can't wait to see how it looks once it's beaded.

    I went to Barns and Nobel to the kids section and found a butterfly coloring book. I went to Staples and had them enlarge one that I liked. I cut templet plastic into the different shapes, then cut the fabric and fused them to the white ground. I finished quilting it and now i'm beading it. When I hace at least one butterfly done I'll post my progress. I hope this helps. Thanks :-)

    It looks great just as it is. But we all have things we enjoy and if beading is your thing, go for it.
