Butterfly Quilt for my Daughters Birthday
 

Just finished this machine embroidery applique butterfly quilt for my daughters 30th birthday. The background fabric is Fairy Frost and I used batiks for the rest.
The embroidery designs are Crystal Butterflies from Secrets of Embroidery.
I FMQ'ed this on my Pfaff Expressions 3.0, took me about 2 weeks for the quilting.
Did not follow a pattern just worked it out as I went along.
The second photo shows up the quilting a lot better
Thank you for looking

Gorgeous!!

very very pretty

very nicely done

Beautiful work!

MiraB ... every time I see this quilt, I appreciate it more and more! The batiks are such a perfect choice for the butterflies, to give them a more realistic look, than a regular fabric ever could. And the glisten of the FF, amazing. So, if they are Crystal Butterflies, are you adding crystals too?

This will indeed make for a VERY Happy Birthday for your DD! ENJOY your day with her!! :)

Ok let her open it and enjoy it THEN tell her she can have it after you enter it in a show somewhere! It is absolutely amazingly gorgeous!!!!!

Beautiful quilt! It is so bright and spring looking. She will love it.

This is beautiful, I'm sure she'll treasure it always.

Very pretty.
