and the baby isn't here yet. I did not put a seperate binding on, I pulled the fabric from the back around to the front. I used invisible thread to quilt the fabric. It took trial and error for the flowers and butterflies but I am very happy with how they turned out. The stems are narrow ribbons and the butterflies' wings are wide ribbon. The lace on the butterfly wings is very heavy and I took apart a piece to make the antennas.
