And to think it used to be a fuzzy creepy thing crawling on a tree trunk. It is truly amazing.

Yes it is :-) Thank you. I thought for sure it would fly away when I got so close but it didn't...she just sat there and posed for me :-)

Thank you very much and I would not mind at all if you make a block from it :-) I love butterflies and try to catch good pictures when I can...photography is another love of mine aside from quilting.

Thank you all for your kind words and I am so happy to be able to share it with you all :-)
