7 wonky butterflies.

9.04.2012

I spent a few hours yesterday catching up on bee blocks for do. Good Stitches.  Kelly requested wonky butterfly blocks in summery colors.  

I used up some charm squares from the rainbow charm swap at Sewing Summit last year to make the wings, a white pindot for the background, and a few yellows for the center strips.
I sewed one block together just to make sure I was doing it right, and then chain pieced the other two to make the process go a little faster.
Here they are all finished, I really enjoyed making these!  The tutorial is very well written if you're interested in trying it out.
I think I'll have to revisit these butterfly blocks soon!

  4. The colours... wow. I love the different glowing yellow-orange centre strips. And the wings. And the white pin dot, too. That is a bit seriously awesome.
