Butterfly dreams


This quilt was a lot of fun to make... I wanted to keep it! I love it! I got the pattern from a book I have, but enlarged the squares. It turned out to be quite big. I love the contrast of the white fabric with all of the colorful swirled fabric (maybe cant see in this small of a pic, but double click to see larger). I also curved the edges which I hadn't ever done, so I was worried it may not turn out (the binding), but all is well and it looks great! Congrats Sheralyn, cant wait to see your little girl!

This is how I give all of my quilts. Folded up with a ribbon. I like to fold it this way because the surprise is inside..... I almost always use soft fuzzy fabric for my backing.. It just feels so good to wrap a baby up in a nice soft blanket!
I have made so many quilts, probably at least 100. No really, literally 100! I always take pictures of the quilts I make and save all of my thank you cards. I have them side by side in an album... well actually its filled so I need a new one, they are all stacked up now. I love to quilt, make new projects, try new things and serve those around me. I enjoy it so much! I mean who doesnt love to get a brand new handmade quilt right?
