    I would love to know how to get these patterns also. I have been searching everywhere and cannot find anything as nice. Your work is gorgeous! I am sure anything I make would not come anywhere near as beautiful but I would like to try. My sister is a docent at a museum in CA which takes people on tours and protects the Monarch butterflies that migrate there. I would love to make a couple of butterfly pillows for her.

    I found zebrapatterns.com and fell in love with the state panels, etc. Thx for the website. The butterflies are on my bucket list also...great job.

    The butterflies are from zebrapatterns.com. I am doing block of the months from my local quilt shop. My 82 year old mom is doing her own set of them also. They won't be done until around next February or March. We are doing a straight stitch with fusible webbing. We still need to add details like sewing on the leaves,the wings and the antennae. This is a first for us for the applique and are learning as we go along. We are enjoying it (most days...LOL)!
