I decided on a bouquet of flowers in the center of the oval of butterflies in flight. Turned out real well. I pressed the quilt top yesterday. Today I will mark the top so it can be hand quilted. This was not only a fun creative project, but a pure joy !

Baby/Toddler Butterfly Quilt
This last week after doing a little research, I decided to make about four baby/toddler quilts. Around the size of 41-42" x 47-48".
My first one is being made with leftover butterflies from my "Butterflies in My Garden" quilt. I want to add flowers and leaves next on the baby quilt. Making them in the same bright colors as the Queen-sized quilt. But this baby quilt is not done in squares at all. But in an oval sort of circle with a butterfly in each corner.
Right now I have all the butterflies but three appliqued on the quilt. I think when one appliques most of the time it seems to go faster as experience is attained. It was no time at all and I had most of them done on the quilt.
