    Boy I have worked for 2 days putting the stripes together. Talk about being dumb twice I added a stirp upside down. Than had to rip it all out.
    Than to say how stupid I was I had it completed hung it up to take a picture and right in the middle a whole stirp was upside down and didn't even notice. LONG day. Besides having to remove and resew that strip and to seam rip out the border stripes.
    I planed to bind it with the navy and white dot fabric. And guess who doesn't have enough of it . swore I had a good yard and half but can't find it anywhere.
    So not sure what to use for the binding .e

    Could have used artistic interpretation as the butterflies flew south... It looks lovely

    Nice! I have found that if I take a picture, even from my phone, I can tell if I like the color layout and also pick up mistakes easier. I do that before I sew and it saves a lot of trouble.
