I love the butterfly appliques, I've never seen that pattern before.

To those of you who are interested in the butterfly pattern...I shall hunt for the drawings and post them for you. This may take a few days (if you could see my sewing room you would understand. One thing I did that may or may not be helpful to you is to draw on thin hard plastic instead of paper. With so many BF the pattern on the paper became damaged to easily. I drew only one side of a butterfly and half of the body, lengthwise, then flipped the drawing over to do the opposite side. This way both sides came out rather similar.

Hi Carron, I love your butterflies, if you don't mind my asking where did you find the pattern for the butterflies. Butterflies are my favorite things to make. Thanks for your help in advance.

Carrin, your choice of fabric is just perfect.. I love your butterflies.. I did one also, and posted the address where to get the pattern so you don't have to. Would you be interested to see mine?
