Butterfly Quilt

It's the end of the month, 

did I make my month two goal for

A lovely Year of Finishes?

Why YES!      Yes I did!      
Hurray for me! 

It was a lot to accomplish, so I wasn't sure if I could do it, 

but I pushed through, 

squeezed a few minutes here and there 

and finished!  

Month one was completing enough blocks for 

and constructing this butterfly quilt for my do. Good Stitches Cheer Group.

My month two was making a back, layering, basting, quilting
and binding the butterflies for a complete quilt.



I love these little butterflies!



Three blocks left over for the back, were a perfect fit. I've had this plaid in my stash for a long, long time. It was the right yardage and went really well with the little butterflies.  I really like how the backside turned out.



I stitched in the ditch between each butterfly
and  in both directions through the center of each one.
Next time I will add more quilting.
I'm pretty happy with my first finish for the Cheer Bee.
