Today I dug in stash & found a queen-size flat sheet to use for the butterfly quilt. between the top & back, all from stash, it used at least 10 1/4 yard of fabric. I didn't include the butterfly appliques in that count, but I'm sure they add some. I decided to use those after reading another post in Main, asking what people do with floral prints. Those aren't really my favorite fabrics to use, but I got several small pieces in some boxes/bags donated to me. Today K & I sandwiched the top & back, & I hope to quilt it soon. My big guilty confession-I bought a Baby Lock Jazz II!! I love it! I finished piecing the butterfly quilt with 2 borders on the Jazz II. I have to practice FMQ on Jazzy before I begin the butterfly quilt.
We realized we need to buy another bolt of batting once we cut a piece large enough for the butterfly quilt. We've been using it at alarming rates! Although, K loves Frankenbatting, and one smaller quilt used that style. We have completed 2 or 3 more, which I'm waiting on the pix so I can post.
