thank you for writing
*****Thank you so much for correcting me! <g> I was totally confused and now it all makes sense. So, now SALUTE! You are working on a new to you pattern and doing what I think is a GREAT job!
So, Miss mtkoldra, carry on and we look forward to seeing your finished project. I admire your industriousness. :thumbup: <wave>

well, thank you very much for you kind words,
from the posted image of the butterfly quilt, I did 'take it apart' on the graph paper down to strip piecing and all, was quite proud of myself doing it and it worked. Today got fabric for backing and cotton batting at LQS. I know it cost a bit more then buying from the web but the backing fabric has white on white butterflies, prefect for this quilt.
I will attempt to quilt it myself (in a ditch) on my old Singer and will post it when I will be done with it.
