Happy Birthday Kristin

February 24, 2021

~15″x15″ (a Splendid Sampler bonus)

Every year when I look for a card for Kristin I particularly look for something with butterflies. This Splendid Sampler bonus block should have been good for three years but after I made one of these butterflies I couldn’t stop. I added sashing and borders and before I knew it I had a wall hanging rather than a card.

Each of those butterflies is individually name – not by me but by the pattern designer. Say hello to Gidget (on the top), Cricket (on the left) and Pepper (on the right). Doesn’t that make them even cuter?

I used the first of my quilting rulers for some of the quilting and pulled out the second ruler (from the instruction book) for some orange peel shapes.
