    Thank you for the information. I was going through some mags I bought last week at a garage sale and found something very similar in June 2001 BH&G American Patchwork & Quilting. It's close enough that it will satisfy my "I want to make one" except for it's only 35" sq. I don't think it will be too hard to make bigger. Their's doesn't have the little butterflies and I don't have an embroidery machine but I'll make do. Their tulips are appliqued on the border.

    Ooops, I guess I should have read all the pages. That's the same one that's in my magazine. But I must admit, I like your interpretation of it better.
