Does anyone know a good source for free paper-pieced stained glass butterfly or normal butterfly block patterns. I'm from Hudson, NC and the town puts on an annual Butterfly Festival and I'd like to make a butterfly quilt to mark the occasion. Please reply; this is my first post, here. Thanks.

Here are some free ones: http://www.freequiltpatterns.info/Qu...ltPatterns.htm

Welcome from Kentucky!

Welcome from the state of Washington in the great Pacific Northwest. Would love to see your butterfly festival.

Thanks,

Welcome to QB! Hope you find something useful! I love butterflies, so maybe I'll check out some of the suggested sites, too!

Here's a couple of sites:

If your local library has the book "501 Quilt Block Patterns", put out by Better Homes and Gardens, I know there are several butterfly patterns in it.

THey are not stained glass, though. Some are patchwork and some are applique.

Thank you for the pattern sites. Really appreciated. :)

Yes, thank you so much, everyone. Your suggestions have been very helpful. What a terrific group of people!

Welcome to the board. Great butterfly patterns - thank you from me, too!
