I’m still working on the zebra block. As a break from all that satin stitching, I decided to stitch another pieced butterfly — this time in pink. It’s really fun to select the little fabric swatch prints for these butterflies.
The original pattern had 3 small curved pieces on the wing. In order to fit the template to my vintage fabric samples, I changed the pattern so there are 4 of these pieces on each wing. My finished block is 9″ x 9″.
Update: The complete original pattern (with instructions) and more block photos are available on a later post here. Click here for a scaled drawing of my adapted pattern.
That’s LOVELY! I do really like that pattern, the curve of the wings is so graceful and it looks like a satisfying block to select fabrics for and stitch.
Very pretty! The points and corners look very precise! Love the colors!
